Does he really think you're dumb enough to put $100K on the table and then not make the payments?

Dating myself here :wink: ), you could buy a little red book with tables full of numbers.

Super motivated sellers are usually not great candidates for sandwhich lease options...they bring a risk to the table that can be dangerous to a lease option...if they are desperate for money thus allowing you to negotiate a great lease option that you can sandwhich off for a profit..then they obviously have money management problems and there is no guarantee they will actually continue making their PITI payments on time.

We were sitting at the table, waiting to order and giving one of our friends a hard time.

Looks to me like after the sales costs, paying off the purchase price and the $50K, and your $25K there's $65K on the table.

The other big mistake was believing that ANYONE will do all the work (with a turnkey operation) and leave any money on the table.

The community is Savannah Lakes, in South Carolina, and offers very reasonable taxes, and a very low monthly property association dues, and no time table to build.Here is the deal:I have offered these for sale, a couple of them as purchase option, meaning, you can lock up the purchase of the property with a low deposit, which I will put in an escrow account(SC Title agency) for a year, and then close on the property after a year (tax incentive for myself) at a preset purchase price which is discounted.

I would let other agents know there are offers on the table.

If you would like to talk about what I can do for you specifically I would appreciate the opportunity to show you what I can bring to the table

When he was elected, the market sold on the news.If McCain would have been elected, I believe that there would have been an impressive one day rally, because that would have been a surprise and all the assumptions about higher taxes would be off the table for a day.I'd say that the presidential news has about run its course.
