I have some money for a downpayment (I have a primary residence), but the prices here are astronomical, and a listing gets multiple offers while cash eventually wins!

Keep up the outstanding work, and may the best team win!

However if they were not given notice the first time it happened, no one knew why it happened so therefore I don't think you have a win, but that's just my guess.

After living in the primary property in Orlando I figured we could move back to New England and rent that property out which seems like a win-win as far as getting a conventional loan rather an investment loan.

Its a win/win in my opinion!

The goal on a wholesale deal is to create a win-win scenario for the seller and the investor.

Well if you have to sue, I hope you win plus get some more for damages.

So, if you're dealing with flaky sellers or shady partners looking for quick wins, it's wise to heed the OPs words.

I can’t see the upside to a dst, paying fees so that win or lose you have to find another one when someone else decides to sell the investment or pay a boatload of taxes.

If you buy a building that helps you live at a greatly reduced cost compared to renting in a neighborhood you like, then you win!
