You don't want to get into a position where you are risking your whole business.In general I'd be more inclined to want to just borrow the down pymt from the store and put the bulk of the financing on the rentals.

I have found title companies much less inclined to do that type of transaction.

I don't know any of these folks, never heard of them (which is not to say I do not trust them) I simply do not know if their discussion is worth the expense, but I might be more inclined, if I was able to listen to a sample of the audio.Thanks,Jack

I'm curious (to anyone who feels inclined to answer), what is your typical response rate on these mailings?

My inclination is to focus on rent to own/lease options.

I guess I am looking to build a network of contacts, both sellers and buyers. and build credibility among those who might be more inclined to work with me on a deal.

I usually do the elliptical for cardio an hour at a time for a 900 calorie burn and 6.0 miles and 10,000 strides incline 10 resistance 9.I also train in the martial arts for over a decade and also the last few years have been doing Krav Maga.

My initial inclination is to purchase cash flow potential properties at distressed prices from wholesalers and/or struggling owners in the Detroit metro area (as I have a partner there to do contracting).How can I best leverage cash on hand to get discounts?
