. :-) back in the day and not a big deal flow.. and all land contracts on bare land.. to put it in perspective. :)

Despite paying fees, doing a deal and making some profit is better than sitting on the sidelines. 

Quote from @Robert Quiroz: I've underwritten around 30 deals so far, mostly in the Ohio market. 

I have followed the Bigger Pockets podcast for years, especially when I first got my real estate license and got my first deals under my belt in 2021.

They do know and want something in place you will have to go back to them to fix, or they're doing their best to go with the client's unrealistic wishes and don't have the guts to tell them that won't work.After dealing with plenty of these, I will tell you what I see works best. 

Explore remote investing options like turnkey properties or out-of-state rentals with property managers, and use summers or gap years to network, analyze deals, and gain hands-on experience.

If there is a large amount of equity, one party may have to buy out the other - if they cant afford it/cant qualify, then the property is sold.I deal with this frequently with mortgages. 

Let’s look at the data.How many mailers, calls, or texts do you need to send to land a single deal?

Purchase price: $545,000 Cash invested: $545,000 What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

I get that there are delays and behind the scenes, dealing with late suppliers, the city authorities being difficult, but I thought for sure I would be further along than this.
