By leveraging shared housing, you can:✅ Lower your initial investment✅ Maximize cash flow✅ Reduce financial risk✅ Make better deals for investorsQuestions for the CommunityWhat's your initial thoughts on the above?

However, it’s important to ensure the seller is comfortable with the terms and that the property cash flow can support the agreed-upon monthly payments.Seller financing can be a good strategy to grow your portfolio with less initial capital, especially if you're able to increase the property's value through improvements (forcing appreciation).

Is it better to have a willing seller and buyer before sending the initial purchase/sale agreement?

The fees and overall costs of these loans needs to be a key factor including what if the project goes over time . . . . you can be underwater in no time.Underestimating repair costs and overestimating ARVs based on Zestimates are the next stumbling block.There's money to be made but make sure numbers all work WITH contingencies defined and overages expected . . . remember, a project will always cost more and take longer than initially thought!

I initially offered $200K in cash, but the seller countered at $240K.

So far, I've used Facebook Marketplace, Zillow, Roomies, Craigslist, and Roomster, and I was able to get some level of interest initially, but haven't had a ton of luck since then, so I'd love to hear some ideas. 

They have twice given me notice that they were prepared to initiate eviction proceedings at the owners request, due to late or incomplete  payments.

Any brokerage can be the right fit for you so long as you commit to taking initiative and putting in the work.By 'work', I mean income-producing activities (lead generation and follow-up) i.e. cold calling, door-knocking, contacting your sphere of influence, networking, hosting open houses, running online advertising, marketing (paper or online), or anything else that will get you in front of prospective clients.My first broker rarely answered my phone calls and by the time she responded, I'd often already have the answer I was looking for.

If you are all in $200k into a property  and it is worth $350,000 after repairs, then you should be able to receive all of your initial cost on a refinance using the new appraised value.
