what i like to do:(i have a few dollars ) i would love to add to that. if i took the wholesaler approach. i know a few buyers. but i do not know how getting the house and facilitating it to the buyer

We are having to evict an inherited tenant, and it’s great having property management that knows the local laws and to facilitate that process.

Yes, one of the keys to the DF Act being applicable is that the security for the loan is a lien on the property, that can be a bit misleading if you take a security interest in other personal property to secure a loan that facilitates a home purchase that would otherwise be covered.

How do I go about facilitating the sale of this land parcel?

Brian G gave a mini course in creative financing (not using a bank or your credit).Lots of seasoned investors haven't used a bank to facilitate real estate deals in years.  

Also, the agent should have attempted to meet the BPO agent and provide low comps, as well as to point out property and neighborhood flaws (nothing personal regarding how you've maintained the property, you just want to get a low BPO to facilitate the bank agreeing to the short sale).

So, you probably want an agent who has experience with the investment strategies you plan to pursue.Also, IMO, successful investing requires an agent who facilitates a strong due diligence process, and who has the ability to see opportunities that other buyers miss.

... just a (volunteer) study group facilitator (how many "gurus" have local communities AND study groups?).

I have been actively partnering with wholesalers providing short term EMD lending and bringing my transaction coordinators in to help facilitate opening of Escrow to close. 

Then there is this issue of going in to add repairs in order to facilitate a loan.
