@Leslie Beiai think offering equity when what you seem to need is just a loan doesn't make sense.  

The only reason to look into franchises that flip houses or do renovations pre-sale is because you have existing business that you could leverage on top of this to add more clientele.

I'm in the small Eugene market, which in terms of industry and jobs offers no real reason to be here.

Purchase price: $145,000 Cash invested: $60,000 Finding a move-in-ready home that offers modern upgrades and country charm can be challenging—but this fully renovated 4-5 bedroom, 2-bathroom ranch is the perfect solution.

Quote from @Shawn Questa: Hi all,I am curious what some of the Pros would do to Help a Seller in this situation while making a Deal happen.I found a 200+ day old MLS Listing where the Agent said the Seller is in Financial Ruin, hasn't Paid the Mortgage in a year, owes about 180k on an approx. 210k House and multiple Buyers have backed out.I don't know how someone could not Pay their Note in a year and not at least be in Pre-foreclosure. 

Purchase price: $162,500 Cash invested: $75,000 I was offered this property directly before it went on the market from my agent.

It helps estimate ARV, rehab costs, and potential returns and offers funding options.

Also review what others offer.

They may be offered at a cheaper price point relative to the coasts but that doesn't mean that those neighborhoods haven't seen population growth and appreciation.
