Hey Brendan - It sounds like you're taking smart steps to navigate the slow season, and the adjustments you've made are all solid moves.

I respect him and what he did for BP, but that sounds like bad advice. 

That sounds like a strategy that some of the YouTube gurus are teaching to wannabe investors with no money or experience and that is going to end up with a lot of deals going sideways as these buyers will probably fail because overpaying is obviously a bad strategy to begin with. 

@Shelley AustinWhile it sounds great - if they cannot qualify for conventional financing will they be successful and pay you?

Right now this sounds like most of the HOA's that we all hate that issue random fines for no real reason, and then attempt to justify it with their bass ackwards logic that they are actually somehow doing us all a favor.I'm not a lawyer, but I would imagine you could also open yourself up to legal action. 

Whatever it is, it sounds coolI feel you bro.

It seems like it could be a sound investment so deserves more extensive underwriting.

Sounds like an unreasonable seller and the most likely reason for them not wanting an offer with a financing contingency is the property is in too rough shape to get financing on it (structural damage, fire damage, etc.) or won’t appraise anywhere near asking price.   

To boost visibility and engagement for my business, I’ve used this smm panel, which helped me gain real views and traction quickly.

This can only sound biased, so if you reach out I will send you references and pricing.
