Typically in my market an fha/va loan needs to outbid a conventional loan by about 5 to 10k at the 400k price range and 15 to 20k at the 600k price point to win the bid. 203k/rehab loans have very little chance of getting an offer accepted at all.

I am seeking advice on how to turn this deal into a fair and legal win/win.I found a duplex in my target area for a fair price, but I have a couple other deals going on so my capital is tied up.

It was quite a great first win. 

., we both win as I get a new house with a cherry tenant, and they get the equity position and the beautiful home.  

I would also add that I want to do deals that are win/win.

As we are not seating on an un-limited cash pile, a few winning TS bids would dry up our fund. 

They soon come to understand that wasted water equates to higher electric bills and that is a double win! 

It looks adorable and fits the neighborhood perfectly, but next time my husband wins and we'll do the 2 car garage. 

I am always looking for people to work with where we can all win!

This creates a WIN-WIN Situation and gives the Realtor incentive, to work harder on your behalf.
