I would try as a company to do whatever it takes to keep the old timers in the forums with some benefits or something to show that they mean something to the site.

Now a-lot of times you buy a home from someone with seller financing and they hold the note for 6 months to season it and then sell the note to another investor or a firm and then it will most likely show up on your credit because these are more sophisticated investors.In regards to the benefits of owner financing you won't have to pay closing costs to a bank.

It takes time and patience, but the long-term benefits are well worth it.I’ve personally gained invaluable knowledge, listings, and deals from friendships I’ve built over the years.The more people you engage with, the faster you’ll achieve your goals!

Sounds interesting.Hi Leah, as you might imagine, most of the benefits focus on individuals and properties directly impacted by the disaster.

Quote from @Karen Smith: Quote from @Jay Hinrichs: well have been a PML HML since the late 80s. benefits are:1.

I do like the tax benefits and leverage.

Additionally you can do a cost segregation study and get a lot of depreciation benefits to offset the rental income (and potentially other income).  

@Greg ReeseMost small investors will benefit by having the LLC created in the state where the property is located at.Creating an LLC in a state like Nevada, Delaware, Wyoming may be better for the big players if items such as charging orders, business friendly case law, anonymity are important to you.However, be mindful that setting up LLC's in those states will add to your costs as you may have increased annual fees for annual LLC fees + registered agent fees.

Use tax benefits like depreciation, repair deductions, and tax-free refinance proceeds to offset income, and consider an LLC for liability protection.

The reason being they see no benefit and they do not understand it.
