Wouldn't they make more money off of it that way, as opposed to a commission fee?

Never heard of a rent to buy option - what are the advantages of that as oppose to just selling or renting?

I don't particularly support the mission of the company, being opposed to government funding of the type we solicit, so that makes work here less fun than it may have been otherwise.

Sometimes you will have to dip lower to get the deal done, and wouldnt you rather make $1,500 as opposed to $0?

As opposed to these REOs hitting the market one by one....Someone has paid attention,Email me when you get a chanceI have a question for youChris

Your RE business generates more income than any other income source.As opposed to depreciation which spreads deductions over 27.5 years (residential only), you could do a cost segragation analysis on your property (cost is between 2k-3k) which always produces larger tax deduction benefits and partially avoids the depreciation recapture when you sell.

Maybe you could be the guy who comes here to BP and proves us all wrong . . . we've been waiting for someone from NRU to come to the site to share wisdom as opposed to market.Are you the one?

Some lenders go by a day of the month, ie the 1st or the 15th, as opposed to 30 days on the market (DOM).During that 1st month they are also less open to taking anything that is not within 90% of asking.

I have a reputation for being able to actually close deals, as opposed to the multitude of newbies during the boom who were good at talking and bad at closing.

But what about if you structure the deal like this:* conventional mortgage of 80% - vendor only has a mortgage of, say, 50% of purchase price, so the 30% cash they receive at closing covers realtor's commission etc* vendor carryback of 20% - vendor gets paid the remaining 20% as a balloon payment in 2 years, plus interest of 10% (or whatever is agreed)Why would a realtor be opposed to this kind of deal?
