., 236 Alice Dr, Wilits, CA (I found this as I am writing to you here)https://www.google.com/maps/@39.38686,-123.3430735...This in your face, likely 'an ugly situation' all around, but it is there, and you will learn.When I was 20 years old a guy told me, "Look at 100 properties and make no offers until, and then after you have reached 100 make an offer on 101, and on everything you see"To me this suggested learning deeply about an area.Did I write 'harsh words? 

I considered doing a quick claim deed, but that would trigger the due-on-sale clause and I don't want that.My question is how do I structure an agreement with investors to allow them access to both equity and cash flow?

@Stephen Karakitsios I'd say the most important aspect of getting started is actually pulling the trigger on your first deal more so than the actual numbers on the deal itself.

That will trigger a much larger price than the $300 for her time. 

Thomas thats a little harsh don't you think ??? 

There are two exceptions: Nonqualified use does not include any period of such use that occurs :(1) any time during the five-year period ending on the date of sale that occurs after the last day of use as a principal residence, or [ Meaning, of last  5 years, if you  rented a property of last 3 years does not trigger non qualified use, but in the last 5 years, if you first rent for 3 years and then move in for two years as a primary residence, 2/ 5 years is non qualified.](2) any time (up to two years) that the taxpayer is temporarily absent due to change in place of employment, health, or unforeseen circumstances. 

Once we have an agreement, I the status is changed (manually or through automated triggers) and the on-boarding process begins where we schedule an inspection, sign the electronic contract, schedule closing etc... all done in sequence with automations. 5.

We recently just pulled out of one where the inspection came back as a disaster.Part of me just wants to get started on something but I'm not sure if I should pull the trigger or not.ARV 105-110kAsking 65k, originally thought we had it for 61k but apparently the seller never agreed on it and countered with 63k.Closing costs will be around 2k.A previous contractor estimated costs to be 28-30k but my agent [who has a good handle on the market] thinks we can do it between 20-25k.Rent right now is $900 and been increasing.So.

With the time it would take to develop this, I can justify the extra expense it’s just hard to pull the trigger on it.

I believe I was able to "win" the bidding war for a few reasons:- I had pre-approval of funds ready to go- I pulled the trigger ASAP when I realized it was a deal worth pursuing- I submitted an offer with an Escalation Clause- I submitted my offer with a nice personal touch that was tailored towards the sellerBest of luck!
