It's seldom that tight as Realtors need properties to advertise you know to draw buyers in.I might suggest you advertise it FSBO as a lease option and clear yourself out if that's what you need to do.

In the mean time, I have a tight little cash paid unit that should generate good cash flow if managed correctly.

Tight margins, now that I think about it.

I will go ahead and submit a back up offer to the LA anyway, in case lender denies 1st offer price or they miss the dead line, or else will come up.

If the contract to purchase is on an REO or short sale and you can't change the purchaser's name, you may want to consider a very tight partnership agreement between you and the partner, even though title will be taken in the name of only one of the parties.

Here's a tip tho, in case you haven't been through this: find out your housing authority's process for requesting a rent increase, deadlines, etc.

If we did not have a time deadline I would have thought it was very humerous.

I have HUD property under contract that I want to wholesale but has a deadline in a week to close.

those margins sound pretty tight to go into this without more certainty.If I had a house with a 10 inch differential, I'd assume that the contractor who built it was a disaster and that it would show up somewhere else in the house, too.

If you can wait that long, it may be worth your while.As for trustee sales there, very tight and thin margins, you will have better luck with REO deals, short sales, or even other auctions (REDC, etc)
