You need to know what switch to throw to avoid unwanted occurrences and that guides you down the path required.

They're big churn & burn operations.

*We buy houses, *i have cash, and i want to buy your house, *unwanted or ugly house, and of course my contact information on there. 

The last thing they will do is burn an investor even if times get tough.How can you find people like that and not someone who is over their head?

That's right about when you're about to get burned, take a huge financial hit and most likely lose the house. 

And sometimes as an agent you get burned.

I am considering purchasing from auction but don't want to get burned by buying a second lien or purchasing a home with future title issues.

If you have a pile of investable cash burning a hole in your pocket and don't have the experience or knowledge to separate an investable deal from one that isn't, or how to operate that deal after acquisition, then you are better off keeping that money in your pocket (or your friend's pocket as the case may be) at least until you are educated enough to do this and/or the market cools to where there is a bit more margin for error (and profit).

Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie.
