Not everyone has this problem...I have a massive and very strong buyers list, including real pro investors and developers looking for deals in NYCbut i need more properties in order to find for everyone exactly what they need,so two questions: (1) how to i generate a bigger flow of deals ?

what part of southwest suburbs are you referring to?  I

When analyzing a sub to I look at how much to get in and how long before I have my money back out via cash flow and captured equity.

Seller only worries about the initial paperwork, getting paid, and foreclosing if you have to. I

I can tell you my investor friendly realtor who I met up w/last week mentioned said she is doing a lot of buying for clients in Leander, north of Cedar Park adjacent to I-183 where homes are still relatively affordable.  

What is really being referred to is a 401k plan that is only meant to cover the business owner or the business owner and a spouse as participants.

If the vent you are referring to is a flue pipe that connects to a chimney then yes there are definite guidelines that must be followed.

@Rachel: which two price points are you referring to? I

May try to acquire the property subject-to. I

All you are bound to is having to close on the scheduled closing date and not being able to terminate if you can't get financing, i.e. you have no mortgage contingency and if your financing falls through you have to be prepared to close in cash or lose your deposit.
