You can on occasion get them to drop the amount, but rarely will they forgo a note.In my opinion, it is imperative you speak to a seller to screen against MI policies.

I am looking for replies from anyone who is buying in those areas in the hopes that they can explain why they are and also from anyone who purchased in the past in those areas to see how they made out.Unlike many people who are buying in those areas, I flew to Ohio, Detroit and the Pittsburgh area on different occasions and did my due diligence, Then I hid my money and credit cards in my sock and drove my rental car as fast as the law would allow back to the airport.Maybe, I missed something, maybe I am not as smart as I think I am, so as of today, wholesalers have been selling property in those areas for about 5 years and I am hoping to hear from people who either did buy to find out how they are doing or people who are thinking about buying to find out why on earth they are even considering it.

I have also been a guest speaker at the GA REIA on two occasions.

We've had auction dates postponed on short sale deals and we've had them auctioned off on occasion.  

They placed poor tenants (stopped paying rent, left huge utility bills, required eviction), turnover was long (4-6 months on multiple occasions), turnover repair bills on the higher side. 

There have been numerous occasions in which I have purchased and resold in less than 90 days, because the property was a very LIGHT rehab, or need nearly no renovation whatsoever.

I have only reduced it slightly on special occasion.

I have used them on occasion for small loans and they are really fast, usually had the funds in my account in a few days.

I have never authorized nor encouraged unethical behavior but I have been the beneficiary of it on several occasions.
