My long term goal is to flip homes (3-4) per month making me passive income to support my family then giving me lecture time to pursue additional entrepreneur dreams.

Well, do you think you can do just anything your little head can dream up in a financing contract?

I'm not looking for a dream home and I'm not paying market price for an investment property.I feel like you're working against yourself hassling with a selling agent that won't even consider an asking price offer.  

I can reach high in the sky where others can only dream of :-).Cant wait to hear from you.Best Regards,Rico 

And the potential is that you will live for free and generate additional income each month.I think the biggest roadblock you will face in taking that route will be the bug that bites most homebuyers that they feel they have to buy their dream home right now. 

At minimum, I will ask rehab budget and their "dream" scope of work.

They know that they don't have to spend money on advertising (if they don't want to), they don't have to look for other clients (if they don't want to) and they know at the end of the year about how much money they will make without having to stress over it.All I ask for in return is consistent pricing, a little lower than market rates, and being top of the priority list when I have work and they have other opportunities.The contractors I've worked with over the years would likely tell you that I'm a dream client. 

It's my dream to invest in S.F but it's extremely expensive but it will manifest for me one day.

I dream of teaching the youth money management and investments.

My dream is to travel the world and not worry about working 50 hours a week.
