But if I get a general loan for the 25k in down payment, closing costs and holding costs I put in that would be electric. 

The investors who focus too much attention on tax strategies are usually the investors who are distracted which leads to bad decision making.

Then the $ I put in to satisfy the hud, which is ultimately the amount the seller would do a seller carry back for, would be paid back to me from the seller on their side of the HUD and then the seller has that amount less in the pocket and takes a 2nd lien with the borrower.And 100% not some Pace Morby crap, i've been doing this longer before he was making up names for creative financing that's been around forever. :)

The  deal saw I think I mentioned above was from a Bp member that they were trying to get to invest in a deal in FLA.. that sounded really fishy.. so I dug into it a bit and when they are the buyers and want an investor to put in the cash 100k plus and then send it to the title company they somehow own.
