I am looking for Miami real estate investors with me to partner in either a debt or equity structured arrangement that will be beneficial to both parties.Time to get hip to self-directed retirement accounts and doing deals using private lenders.Given what's going on in the world right now, folks will be looking to shield their IRAs and 401(k)s from the foibles of the Wall Street Casino.

Chris K;Can't blame them, but sadly, that's basically the basic premise of Wholesale deals...

@Lynn HubbardAs with Rob K.

This is of course, assuming, the lender fully releasing the mortgage and seller released from all obligations under the note and mortgage and the lender waive all rights to collect on any deficiency amount.In other words, the only thing that matters to the seller is the terms - the contingencies, is there an inspection?

However Like @Jerry K. said a parking lot for an in use building will likely get redeemed.

I'm also looking to connect with anyone else who may have helpful information to share.Several years ago I purchased a multi-family property in MI (my home state), on a 203-k and it wasn't the most positive experience, but I learned a great deal in the process.
