I'm curious to see what experiences Mike's had within the community.

Quote from @Guillermo Perez: Does anyone have experience with seller finance?

How’s everyone doing ?I’m very new to this but I’m proud to say I am now an investor, I just haven’t invested in anything yet. I plan on taking a few years saving my money and learning as much as I can about real esta...

Please share any helpful resources, your personal experiences, and what you have found to be valuable with every transaction.

It sounds like the Seller does not want to commit until he knows the deal will go through, and until that time, he wants to be able to entertain other offers. 

For many of these hybrid and remote employees today, the main attraction to living in and around a major city like D.C. is the easy access to retail and entertainment areas, especially experience and community-focused retail areas.

Sell the home to whoever your target tenant will be - modern, sleek, urban, renovated, bright/spacious; then sell the location - not whether they have a bank account or need a 7/11 - just that it is located to 'dining, entertainment, shopping, more.' 

I can say my personal experience has been pretty mediocre.

We had to move fast and initially decided to sell it, the relator who was helping us somehow convinced us we should make it a rental property......... and let her be our tenant (insert face palm here) so since we had no real estate experience and we were already moved away, we agreed.

@Aubrey Eblin Thank you very much for sharing your experience with the Rent To Retirement Academy.
