Hey BP family, I'm currently trying to help out a family in need from having to foreclose on there property by taking over subject to, it has a high interest rate although the entry is around 20k I want to wholesale this ultimately Is it possible for me, to disregard my initial assignment fee to get a buyer asap and add a 2nd lien on the property as my fee? 

The key is ensuring the after-repair value (ARV) supports refinancing to pay off the initial funding without overextending.Fix-and-flip - This requires sharp numbers and market knowledge.

@Shiloh Lundahl Awesome, thank you ok so having that 10-20k as a buy in is important, to first getting into it.... it helps get those first deals started.... just as an aside : I am also just starting out doing finder's fee methods - with tax foreclosure overages refunds, and assett recovery / state funds refunds... so I think those can help me to get that intial 10-20,000.... it might take me some months, but I think I can get there.... that's my initial plan, at leastAnd if I can get that saved up, then that will help me break into deals....

Not a ton of value-add opportunity, more of a core+ investment in a very small market I'm familiar with - my initial analysis is yielding a 14% IRR & 1.28 EM, so I'm not sure of the attractiveness to investors.

They should be found early on by talking to other investors or your investor friendly Realtor.It is through effective property management that your money is made besides buying well initially.

I wasn’t trying to be long winded, with too much detail, in my initial post but I actually did this method on a fix and flip.

I bought these two houses that were next door to each other with a partner using hard money (3pts, 13% interest, and 1% extension fee every 3 months after the initial 6 month term).

They ended up costing me a few grand, so much wasted time, and the terms are not even close to what they initially told me.

I hopped on the roof with the garden hose to defend the property (even though initially it was contained) when suddenly an ember spread to a palm tree (that had been neglected to be trimmed for years) that instantaneously atomized/vaporized into hundreds of embers and spotted fires on several homes.

What drew me to Detroit initially was the potential for strong cash flow, but I’ve also seen appreciation in several of my properties as the city continues to improve.
