Writers could unload their bad novels.

Scott, but I would imagine many of the materials cost the same (from big box stores, lumber liquidators' etc.).

I have talked with a homeowner who is ready to unload a under-performing duplex because he is tired of dealing with the type of tenants he approves to live there. 

I'm looking to wholesale a deal in the area maybe If i think i can unload it. 

The only option I see is a short sale, but that may be biting off more than you can chew considering you already have two deals under contract.I'd recommend slowing down a bit and focusing on how you plan on unloading or handling the houses you do have under contract.  

I do have one more batch of 25 that I plan to unload either this weekend or next weekend but I am not expecting anything unfortunately after getting no leads.

Owners are motivated and want to unload the property.

Do you find that these investors sell at the market Cap rate for the given area and building type or are they pricing their cap a bit higher to unload the property faster (leaving more meat on the bone)?

I have been involved with real estate for many years with my father and after Katrina he unloaded 4 properties in Mid City (duplexes, 4plexes) because of the uncertainty at the time.
