Quote from @Daniel Tanasa: Hello Terry, If you're looking to find houses that are in pre-foreclousure you can use a website like www.foreclosure.com and you can get the list of properties and start marketing to them. 

The approach involves using a hard money lender (HML) to fund 75% of the purchase price while having the seller carry back 25% in a second-position loan, allowing you to flip the property with little money down.

- Will they preview properties for you, taking narrated videos they send to you?

Better play it safe and use a warranty deed instead.Also, later on when you sell your property, it will keep the chain of title cleaner for the next title insurance.Last but not least, a warranty deed does not cost more than a quit claim deed...

Unlike long-term rentals, STRs can be treated as non-passive, allowing depreciation deductions, including bonus depreciation (40% in 2025) on eligible assets.For tiny homes, tax classification matters:If mobile, it is considered personal property, allowing 100% depreciation under §179, subject to income limits.

Back then, the market was more stable, interest rates were below 4.5%, and distressed properties sold at significant discounts.Today, distressed properties often sell at a premium, and cash-out refinance rates are above 8%.The best BRRRR deal I can find today involves buying a property with cash, investing in the rehab with cash, pulling out 75% of the ARV and breaking even on rent and mortgage.

My question is: when wholesaling, after finding a great deal, do you need real proof of funds to the get the property under contact or is there a way to get it under contract, find a buyer and complete a double closing/assign the right to sell without actually having the cash for the property? 

This account is also used for any maintenance the property may need.

If this effort gains traction, it could fundamentally reshape the U.S. mortgage market, impacting financing options for real estate investors nationwide.The Role of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac in Housing FinanceFannie Mae (Federal National Mortgage Association) and Freddie Mac (Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation) are government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs) that purchase mortgages from banks and lenders, package them into mortgage-backed securities (MBS), and sell them to investors.

I'd also ask if you've confirmed with the agent the seller will consider only selling you 4 of the 6 (unless you have someone else that will buy the other 2)?
