The challenge is that the property only has a one-hour open house the day before the auction.Here are the details:•Opening bid: $100K•Hard money lender financing: Up to $220K (with my 20% deposit and 100% renovation costs covered)•Comps in the area: $485K–$510K•Estimated rehab (based on pictures): $125KObviously, this estimate could change significantly once I see the property.

Giving the seller different options during the negotiations was really helpful because it let me find out what was really important to him and allowed me to make changes to my offer, so we could come to terms that worked for both of us.

Does that change anything?

i have a great property i could send you that i found has many great qualities its a cozy modern home with workshop and detached garage price is close to half a million but could very possible to change the sellers mind for your price range seeing as it needs renovations not many but still need them this property is in washington state but the area is good for selling seeing as a majority is rich and looking for nature vacation getaways right by a beutiful lake and mountain contact me if you would like to find out more i will have to note if you consider and take the property i do require a finders fee of a minimum of 500 depending on the deal 

In order to get a response, and validity, they'll want you to actually provide the basic filing and proposal of what you seek to change at the property/building. 

In the end, the weekend after the fed announced the first interest rate drop, we had an open house that had more traffic than our opening weekend 3 months earlier. we received a full-price offer for the house and closed in early November. obviously I have no way of knowing if the interest rate drop was a trigger, but nothing else changed in the market at that time. just wanted to share in case others are curious. appreciate all the thought partnership!

Also if they do accpet appilcations you need to have experience in BPO's and have all your ducks in a row to start listing, i.e. e&o insurance, licnese information vendors you are going to work with to change locks, trashout and property preservation.

It is basically a VA loan and from my experience, you have to purchase as yourself and then change into your LLC after close. 

Remember standards are changing constantly, and just because that subdivision has this construction feature in it, doesn't mean you can too (doesn't mean you cant either).

I ended up changing my RA, and so now they're handling mail.
