@Sonia Captain Thank you so much for your response and the information you provided, just to clarify on your first suggestion, how exactly do i market to LLCs with little to no capital?

So in other words the people your dealing with are not the captain of their ship they take orders from on high.

After much coaching and hard work, he's now, 4 years later the captain of his team.

When the Co Captain of BP only gets a couple responses I had to double check what was up with that.

Keep in mind also, that you can roll a 401(k) into an IRA, but not vice-versa, so if your new job has one it might be worth it to wait and roll it into that one.

Interesting situation that I am analyzing and could use some ad(vice), questions, discussions to help me flush out the nuances of the two options.

And no smoker is going to go outside to smoke when they don't want to- they will open a window.One thing that cigarette and marijuana smokers don't recognize is how horribly they smell of their chosen vice.

We called his captain (moral terpitude and all) and got lip service not much else..

Thanks again.I brought it up because I thought I was noticing a pattern while analyzing deals, wanted to see if anyone else observed it as well.Of course I realize the difference between ARV and Assessed wouldn't give an EXACT estimate of repairs, but was thinking maybe it was a good starting point for further analysis.For example, if a property's ARV and Assessed are very far apart I was thinking it might indicate that the property needs a lot of work...and vice verse if the ARV and Assessed are very close together.Is there any logic behind my train of thought in your opinion?

I wasn't sure if you would be able to finance a flip with a non-arms length mortgage or not, but it sounds like it's not as much of an option.I could fund your flip, but you could not (you are not arms length) and vice versa.
