@Kim Taylor, I would be interested in taking a look at your grandmothers place and see if we can help move it quickly. 

That hassle comes at absolutely no benefit, so what's the point in taking it?

No sense in taking out cashflow when you have a W2 job.

I am very interested in taking him up on his offer and plan to build on the lot within five years of ownership; however, I am not sure how to structure the terms of an owner financing mortgage and terms. 

To be honest, since I'm new to this form of investing, I'm a bit nervous in taking the steps to own my first property and I'd like to consult with someone who has a good amount of experience in the industry - someone almost like a mentor, I guess.If anyone is out there who is interested in helping me out or being a point of contact for me and my beginner questions, please let me know!

In taking with the assessor's office they stated it often takes much longer than the minimum to issue a tax deed as they want to be doubly sure that they didn't miss protecting the rights of creditors.

Ashley,Good for you in taking the first steps to investing in real estate.

So I totally believe in taking as much cash out of a home as you can get.

If anyone's interested in taking me under their wing I would love to grab drinks, coffee, lunch, dinner etc and see how we can help each other out.
