I have seen two foreclosed properties where the residents who are loosing the house deliberately sabotaged and otherwise damaged the home.

They are bound by ethics, statute, and their fiduciary duty to act in the best interest of the Seller.

Realtors are always like that.Beg to disagree Christian (i'm an agent), but I do know exactly what you mean.It drives me crazy when agents overstep their bounds and make decisions/statements that are completely unqualified.

Hi,Loose the pop up ads.

What other vehicles are there for me to fund my deal and not loose out on a good opportunity...I will really appreciate any advise anyone can give me.

I give more weight to solds than listings, but if there are multiple listings of comparable properties in the same area, then they define an upper bound on the value.Based on that data, I'd say $70K for the first deal is not a good deal at all

Here in San Antonio section 8 tenants can loose their housing if they tear up the property.

JoshWe have not had a books and tapes sepaker since mid last year, the club is growing by leaps and bounds.

50% LTV70% LTV90% LTVIf you own a house outright and get a low interest 50% LTV first loan on it (not an equity loan)...use the money to buy a great deal @ 70% of value...and make sure it is an easy rental (3bd, 2ba, SFH,etc) put the money you borrowed down on the new place to get that loan at 50% LTV...it would be hard to loose your shorts.

Yes some tightening up was necessary as banks’ guidelines prior to the mortgage crisis may have been too loose, but now they seem to have gone too far the other direction.
