If you are interested in more info I would be happy to pass on a name to you so you can get the skinny on what they are up to now since I am out of the selling of those properties loop. 

My skinny contract is so much in my favor with extended time for settlement, I would not want the buyer (assignee) of my transaction to have control of my contract, nope, not going to happen!

If your mortgage takes up 70% of your income and the other 30% goes into a savings account, you must be REALLY skinny. 

I guess the other question at hand, you (OP) are looking for a JV partner, are you looking for capital for this or what's the skinny there.

IN our market its VERY difficult to get spec loans but super simple to get rehab loans.Same terms here though 90% of cost... what will your 270k all in 1900 sq footers sell for... in our market they would go out at 350ish single level and 320 ish two story... that's suburbs of Portland inner city 500 to 600k We are building in Charleston and those exact dimensions will go for about 390 to 450 for those tall and skinnies... and all sell before they are done... like I said some days I like it some not so much...

I wouldn't buy something this skinny in a C area unless I knew it was going to undergo some gentrification next week.No harm in offering what works, though.  

It just sounds like a skinny deal with no upside.Throw these deals in the rental calculator.

You are a buyer - you can make the seller's problems go away - don't sell yourself - be firm in your thinking and your negotiating.Use a "skinny Contract of sale"You are the CEO of your company - it is up to you to make the right decisions or regret the ones you've made.

Lots of educational time if you use an iPod or similar with books on tape, seminars, etc.Still a drag so you start to cut corners.

I wanted to get some input from the masses on investing in properties with settlement claims, i have been keeping my eyes out on properties with multiple searches i setup on the MLS along with a few wholesale lead sources i have acquired, most of the wholesale deals are so skinny on profit that you'd have to do all the work to really make any extra income from the flip or fix and hold lately, but today i got a lead on a property in an area that is typically a 250-300k housing neighborhood, but there was a settlement claim on the property about 8 years back with repair documents to support the repair.
