Originally posted by :Deal 1 sold this week at auction for a loss, probably a $4,500 loss, this is in my profit calculation.Deal 2 Bought for 20k sold for 45 with 10k down and 35k financed for 8 years at 8% I counted this as a 45k asset but probably should have only counted it as 35 since the 10k has been reinvested and is reflected in other assets.Deal 3, bought for 10k and foreclosed on a non performing borrower, we will be all in for under 20k, and should sell for @ 45k, maybe more if we do owner financing.
