I remember reading a BP post about how to have a property transfer count as a sale without triggering all the normal excise taxes and such.  

I’m hoping to find something to pull the trigger on in the next few months!

Keep in mind that we were in a market that was not normal and not sustainable we are just retreating back to a normal market were market time is normally 90 days for DOM .. that's been more normal.. its not normal to list a property and have 17 offers first day.. and along with that its the time of year it always slows down right about now.. the turn key folks I know though are still plowing through their inventory.. as investors are buying for cash flow and as long as the numbers work they pull the trigger.

I have an itchy trigger finger, part of the reason why I like real estate is because it forces me to do better homework and stick with it for the long term.I guess my worry is, am I dumb for not "sheltering" money in a Solo 401k at all?

I have an appointment to go check out this property but want to make sure that if indeed I do want to pull the  trigger on putting the home under contract, I can find a cash buyer quickly.

I had a question regarding the seller financing strategy-  Did this ever trigger a due on sale clause?  

Talk to your lender and make sure you know what fees and interest rates are before pulling the trigger.

I have a cousin who died due to an epileptic seizure they think was triggered by an insecticide “bomb.”

@Tiffany Milan I had 5 years of experience as an intern for a Real Estate Investor, but when I finally pulled the trigger, I was not 100% ready.

To buy the house, the holder of the Option must exercise that Option...which then triggers the third Contract...the Purchase Agreement.There is a much simpler way of accomplishing "rent credits" and "O.O.P. credits".
