@Kevin Phu I mean other sites being my local newspaper website (and paper copy) , bankrate, USA Today, etc.

The liquidity is determined by the offered yield, and strength of the paper in multiple metrics (Seasoning, down payment, borrower credit, equity, etc).

They also didn't bring any packing paper even though I hired them to pack a kitchen.  

Yes, leverage is the way to go and house value does not mean much as long as it looks good on paper.  

Networth is just numbers on paper.... don't sweat it... take your highest interest rates and pay those off until you have no other debt other than mortgages.and maybe a car... that's it... paying interest on anything else is throwing money away

While it is an asset on paper of 100000, it isn't realized until you turn it into money- either by selling or by taking a loan against it.The problem comes with market fluctuation.

In short term probably May easier to have my partner carry the paper and finance the deal  

As far as I can tell there's no way I can defeat the redemption (short of buying the redemption rights for several times the auction price), but if I have to move out 2 days after I receive the papers I better start packing now!  

- you make 50% of the net profit - that is net less advertising or expensive - so if the expenses are $1,000 you would make $9,500.00 and I would make the same.The expenses are usually the cost of advertising the property for sale.So............... it you are ready to begin creating leads - this is what I suggest you do ---Farm neighborhoods to look for FSBO's, send me as many expired listings as you can in the neighborhoods where we are going to invest, Go to housing court 2-3 times a week to listen to the cases and meet landlords after their case is called, run some ads in the local papers (I will design the ad for you), get me a list of all the local auctioneers in the community, put flyers on super market bulletin boards, ask 5 people a day if they know of anyone interested in selling their real estate.Look for commercial and business real estate for sale - get me all that information and we'll make a call to get information and make them an offer (you present the offer for us)Later in the "Mentor - Apprentice relationship we will advertise on radio.Any questions?

Much easier to put it all on paper and then play around with the numbers to see where your cash would serve you best.
