Through my hustIing and scrambling I've actually met some pretty  helpful guides and mentors.

Although have received details and rapport from the homeowner which is all scrambled.

In the meantime, the seller scrambled to find a tenant without proper tenant screening and pushed through a candidate with prior eviction history and who I did not approve.

Apparently, the owner was about to be foreclosed on and did not bother informing anyone about it, and now we were 4 days away from the auction.We scramble and our title company comes through with getting the property closed.

The most efficient (and busiest) truck I've seen has a group of college-aged kids scrambling around in there cranking out tons of burritos by the minute.

I may not actually need that 7%, but having it and not needing it is a lot better than scrambling for funds and not knowing where to get them.

I said I will pay them back on the date agreed then I scrambled to find the money.

I figured that was because the first was confident they were covered and the 2nd was scrambling to make sure they got their piece, and to make sure the court knew their piece was 569K, not 390K.But I was looking for that one smoking gun that should have told me, yes this auction is definitely for the second mortgage ...or even yes, this auction is definitely NOT on the first mortgage.

If double close, you probably want to have a title company ready to do the transaction for you, so you're not scrambling at the last minute to find a closing agent who will handle the double close.

Then, maintain a stable you can pick and choose from as your properties, and their lending criteria, fit.The last thing you want is to be scrambling at the last minute to find money after having an aggressive offer accepted.Good luck, Jonny.
