Something I’ve thought about for some time, but without action...you know....I’ve been studying and researching for a little over a year now, but making connections is my growth area so that I can form a good community to learn and work with.Whats the best thread/article you’ve come across on:- finding the first deal/learning with others executing a deal- creating a successful team (contractors, inspectors, real estate lawyers, etc.)- analyzing deals (preferably comparing 2 or more deals)There are so many threads here, so maybe this can help me get to some specific links or info a bit faster.

Sometimes, it really depends on the vision of the investor as well as their ability to execute.  

With the right documentation/agreement I assume I would be able to lock it down even though when it comes time to execute on the option that strike price agreed upon upfront will be 50 or 60% of the actual re-positioned value.  

I am new to the Community and I'm very interested in learning how to execute investing.

.), executing the business plan, keeping investors updated, etc...Simple answers but I think they answer your questions.

I don't know the details, but I believe a court made a ruling that scared the banks into it... could be wrong about the reason why.Yes I mean one that has passed through the court, the court issued a writ of execution and passed it on to the Sheriff office to sell at a court house step auction.

Recently, myself and two colleagues have decided to get serious about finding and executing our first deal in the Cincinnati area.

Get the info you need, build the team, but then be sure you execute and do a deal!!

I have this offer to buy a house valued at $150k, with a purchase price of $115k. seller said he would finance for 9-12 months then a balloon payment for full price would be due. how can I execute this?

They are not as aggressive on dollars but pricing, flexibility, service, operating covenants, and certainty of execution are better than both Agency and CMBS.
