In short, I was getting too cute with a seller financing idea.

The best advice on this topic, in my opinion, comes from 2 books:How to win friends and influence peopleNever eat aloneI am also looking for brokerages to work with or even experienced shadow / intern for to gain experience and additional knowledge.

My goal is to build a business that serves corporate clients; construction and infrastructure development teams,  medical/education faculty,  corporate relocation,  family emergency relocation services,  sports travel/events, corporate and industryand I want to learn from those of you who are doing this successfully and are willing to share actionable ideas for how I can be successful in offering value to these groups.Thank you!!

I love the idea of fix & flip right now @Abigail King, especially right now here in Chicago and I am sure it is similar for you in central Illinois -- it's winter so there are way less buyers and if you can get under contract soon you can likely rehab over the winter months and hit the spring market!   

Great advice and ideas, thanks!

Hi guys, this is a really interesting forum, also the other topics, however I hesitate to pay ca.350/yr to use it’s full functionality.

The idea was that the buyer we were financing to would fix the properties up BEFORE moving in.

Check out the BP's Real Estate Events & Happenings area as there's an event this week which will be covering the topic in Tampa, for Tampa region.
