in the near past I use it to sell off properties i foreclosed on and dont want to rehab.. buyers like it  I understand the rules.but talking Mrs old lady into this is as you note just another way to make a deal without taking the sellers interest in mind.. thats what sells these guys but if you have a sophisticated seller then  its fair game in my mind.

My buyers were sophisticated entities that would lawyer up to stall a foreclosure, but not sophisticated enough to challenge the conveyance method ironically.   

It seems like a very sophisticated project, but doable.

I think the other commentators have it right - a HML that is willing to take an investment that is small is probably not vettable and not a smart play - however if you have ~$500k or more to put in, then the legitimate more easily vettable firms would pottentially be interested - and you would be able to see the sophisticated setup, documents, structure etc and be able to research accordingly

These are some of the things sophisticated LP's look for.

I would say to look at all strategies. it's more about who your team is, their sophistication, etc. we do everything on data and underwrite every deal and help answer a million questions which makes it easy. your team is everything. happy to chat about columbus I'll shoot you a PM

Trying to wholesale while it can work its like I said very tough to do and your going to have a ton of deals fall out because of the inherent marketing times for dirt.And when your talking about commercial property its even worse.. you will not sell it unless your basically giving it away UNTIL you find a user.. and buyers of commercial are far more sophisticated than buyers of a rural parcel looking to build a cabin or a builder looking to build on infill in a city.In northern CA we bought 72 acres of which consisted of 14 parcels of record. 4 of them 5 acres each were zoned industrial this was a small rural county.. we sold the 9 that were for resi purposes in the first few years.

That’s a pretty good ROI.We consider ourselves pretty sophisticated (own over 500 units) but this is evidence that “you don’t know what you don’t know”.

It can get pretty complex versus long term rentals - I'd highly suggest using tools like AirDNA that has pretty sophisticated data and projections on STRS in every market before pulling the trigger

It’s a fairly sophisticated operation, with an unusually long time lag between first identifying the unclaimed funds, tracking the beneficiaries, obtaining a contract from said beneficiaries, gathering all the documents needed for “proof”, dealing with numerous government agencies, and finally hopefully having your client receive the funds and you getting paid.
