Unfortunately looking like this specific deal likely won't pan out; seller is definitely not motivated to offload quickly/discounted based on their replies.I found a realtor through BP who I'm now working with to find a property, so progress in the right direction!

Initial Equity: The discount you achieve when buying below market value.

My account was corrupted 6 months ago and can't talk to anyone other than a bot.Pretty terrible customer service....drove me to quickbooks....any discounts there?

You don't always have to incentivize a tenant with a discount to get the tenant to stay, nor keep rents stagnant, but it is good to be aware of the business impact with respect to cost too.

When you give your phone number to any business, bank, grocery store for discounts and on and on, it becomes available to data brokers.

That was a substantial discount compared to my friends who were paying 2k+.

For example I would rather buy a property for a $100k discount that may have negative cash flow of $500/mo month for 3 years than pay market value for a property that cash flows $200/mo.

A lot of family businesses cannot stay in business upon parent death due to no longer getting the prop 13 property tax discount.  

Hence the lot on which the house resided was taxed at a 45% discount based on actual value, while the tennis lot was taxed at about 4 times what it should have been by value.
