I've doing business in the islands for about 12 years but almost all flips via private lending or owner/creative financing.

I have done several in the past and most I have been satisfied with the outcome however this one was not as expected therefore I am trying to get creative.

Also, Wealth Without Cash by Pace Morby is amazing, if you are interested in Creative Finance.
