Again, I used my parents but this time only as lenders of part of the money for the down payment.

I like DealMachine because you can literally drive or walk for dollars on the app in real time and all contacts are skiptraced with pro.But, you also want to make clear why you want to find off-market deals.

Did your discount make it worth your time to buy it anyways? 

They are pretty unique conversions, it does take considerable time, effort and money!

I can imagine this is a challenging decision to make.My thoughts:When hope is a key component of the plan of action, it is time to cut losses.

In my seven years of investing, I’ve only partnered with my wife and my father and have no plans to change that any time soon. 

And the second was that it was in a flood zone with the listing agent and seller saying it had never flooded but we were able to get confirmation that it had taken on water at least 3 times in the past year and the insurance agent for the property stated that with the flood insurance the premium would be close to $11,000 annually which meant the list price had to drop from $339,000 to less than $239,000 to make anything work.

So, now that you got your losses and failures done - and congratulations by the way because I can't think it could go any more wrong - now you can start over.So yes, get those properties sold and do this right this time.
