Right now Charlotte has been a pretty hot market in certain areas so those numbers may make sense but other areas, like the west side of Charlotte it may take a bigger discount to entice a buyer.Also remember that the 70% of ARV - repairs is what the BUYER wants so you will need to factor in a number lower than that if you expect to get a finder's fee.

He was also saying much of this is to ensure the practices leading up to the bubble are not going to be allowed, no doc loans won't ever be on the scene in the future and enticing a borrower into a loan they can't afford will get a lender hammered hard.

Show them the tax incentive for real estate, their profit and capital return and you take 50% of profits after they get their principal back plus 10% interest per annum.In the above examples you can entice them and they won't feel you are taking advantage, why should they turn over 50K or 100K or more and split profits?

The 100 down is enticing, but I don't want to hamstring myself by affecting my debt/income ratio and with no realized returns for over a year.

If it is the later then you might just have to resolve yourself to a high DOM or dramatic price cut to really entice someone.

I have three and have made great use of them, but I need to get rid of one of them that I don't use much anymore due to having to start working a regular job again and I will probably need to pay the 2014 maintainance fee and the transfer fee to entice someone into taking it off my hands.

Last night, a prospective tenant/buyer offered me an enticing lease option agreement.

Doing a contract for deed has become more enticing to several investors I work with in the ability to not have to become a licensed lender.  

In my opinion, to entice the seller, I would offer at least 8%, plus a down payment.
