Thanks Hi Erik,There are several private lending products available that can help with thepurchase of vacant land, depending on your situation.

We also have model units that are available to show via a property tour. 

Just wondering if anyone out there has worked with this company or Sohin Shah for private financing. 

I'd connect with a vetted hard money lender or gather enough private capital from family/friends. 

My husband and I just made a trip down and toured a number of what seemed like attractive options, spanning neighborhoods including Avenida Balboa, Costa del Este, and Clayton (among others).

Ask the title company who will be doing your closing.I am looking to purchase tax deeds from a private party in Jefferson county redemption periods have passed would you mind giving me some advice on what I need to look for and how will I get clear title of this property.

In the first 9 minute episode of David Greene's new podcast, he says that a while back, BP was bought by a private equity firm. 

We used private money and seller finance for acquisition, raised rents, renovated one building, and sold each building separately as 4 unit buildings.

You're right that the expense/hassle of a trip is worth it relative to the amount of money at stake.A question on that though - in a market where good OM deals hardly last longer than a week - is it really realistic to plan on touring specific properties that I might put an offer on?

Have you ever had difficulty getting a loan with poor credit? What alternative funding options did you explore?
