Expect, to only get about 8% (or lower) of the properties you buy redeemed.If you pay close attention to the type of property, and do research to protect your interests, the percentage does jump up to about 30%-50% on the properties eligible for two year redemption.

FHA has some time required before reselling a property you just purchased, 3 months i believe but everything i’m saying must be validated for your own protection doing these things.

If we buy this loan, we need to have a thorough game plan on how we are going to be resolving this and understanding these dynamics is key to managing expectations and protecting investments.Sounds like a deal more for someone that buys partial inheritance estates and spends years piecing it together than a note investor.

The entity you select can impact everything from how you're taxed to how you protect your personal assets.LLCs are often the go-to for real estate investors because of their simplicity and flexibility.
