If the Seller were getting $10,000 from the sale, you could pay 50% at closing and the remainder when they deliver possession.What you don't want is for them to stay in the property and require eviction or for them to haul off all the appliances, doors, and cabinets on their way out.

Ive been toying with the idea of teaming up with investors for that one if it makes sense.  

I've been toying with the idea of investing in a crowdfund, but at the same time I'm looking to move and my capital's not where I want it to be yet. 

Its either that or a larger company who can afford to over pay and pick it up over the long haul or flip a group of properties in one deal.

Working a long haul to a late retirement doesn’t seem likely that I’ll have much enjoyment when I finally reach that. 

We got calls/ texts (typically in the middle of the night), more like rants, for closet door off tracks, other tenants leaving toys out front, chalk marks on asphalt, leaves on lawn (typically gardener was there every 2 weeks), etc.  

A few after that into toys...It's whatever you want to do with it... it's your profit and congrats for having it!

I had a nice new truck, a vintage collector car, a motorcycle, and numerous other recreational toys.

I know I would lose $50k up front but over the long haul I would save at least that $50k in interest and basically cut my PITI in half and double my cashflow the next 30 years.

I'm currently working (slowly) on a Suzuki GS500F streetfighter bike, but house projects take priority over fixing toys.
