Does anyone know of a connection that can get lumber at a great price?? 

so you had one company Stimpson lumber make 37 claims on literally 20 or 30 thousand acres of Timber land After the state realized this was no good they reversed the law .. 

It will also be much easier to unload in the resell market when the time comes.

COVID, 2008, lumber costs and the current lending environment have created a perfect storm on the supply side.

You also become a CEO, meaning that you may maximize your returns by unloading unprofitable/marginal or troublesome properties and expanding into better investments.

I'd still love to hear your comments on why or why not to include this as a strategy.Sara, if the deal is carried out honestly by the buyer, adheres to everything agreed to, it's a nice way for the seller to unload his home.

The labor shortage we are experiencing in construction trades alone drives these prices higher, combine that with the movement in the cost of lumber and you have a mess on your hands.

Lumber quality today is mostly trash.

@Dave Fontana If you get hung with a property but cant find a contractor and want to unload, I could be a buyer if it has retail flip potential in A,B areas.

As far as buying directly from banks, that is possible but you either need a large capital outlay to take down a large pool of NPLs or deal with local portfolio lenders who may have some assets which they need to unload.
