@Kelcie Grabill Do you have a short sale facilitator involved?  

They have one once a month (skipping the one for July due to the holiday weekend) @Daniel Wampler is the facilitator of the monthly meetings -- can find the site on Meetup.com

As I've mentioned before, it's the creative use of your "assets" to facilitate better financing opportunities, not tricks, or gimmicks or types of contracts like an installment agreement. 

Given that I have no clue where to begin, I'm debating liquidating to an experienced mining company or somehow facilitating the deal myself.

As a sidenote, my mortgage broker informs me that my minority stake in the business will complicate a sale so he is instructing me sell the shares back to the majority owner for $1 (which will raise his suspicions) in order to facilitate a sale.  

You do not need to pay the Realtor a commission on the house, but perhaps you can work out a set fee or hourly wage for them to facilitate the transaction.  

just because you are an agent doesn't make you an good investor.investor friendly agent like me are around :)i find we tend not to advertise we are..... here is why, in my opinion....I got my license bc I COULDN'T find an agent like me.I've have my license for a few yrs now. mostly to facilitate my own deal. and help other investors along the waythere are just different kinds of agents. just like there are different kinds of doctors.if you need surgery you don't go to your gp. you go to your surgeon.unfortunately agents aren't labeled unless they market themselves. luxury, REO, relocation.investor friendly agent I found go by WORD OF MOUTH. 

This will all facilitate more efficient use of my time I believe and allow me to look through and offer on more deals.  

We gave our kids practical opportunities to make money and facilitated 'business opportunities', trying to say 'yes' more often than 'no'.  

But you can't call me like I am a private lender and expect 100% financing. the deals I do again are with very trusted partners that in most cases have been with me for 10 to 15 years... so really its a partnership its just we don't end up owning the asset the ground partner does we just facilitate them getting the rental portfolio they desire.
