More equity and renting seem to be the best tactics when real estate starts to drop again soon when buyers turn to renters due to the economy and rising interest rates...

The tenant can always file some other frivolous claims of non habitability and other stall tactics to stay as long as he can.

Feel free to message me regarding several tactics to check, manage & raise both business/corporate and personal/spouse credit scores, John

Would you suggest any other tactics that involve buying but not completely in cash?

I currently hold their security deposit, only $500 and technically I have threatened to report their business to code enforcement before (I held off) but I could use that as a negotiating tactic for leaving on time, since the fines are up to $5000 in Miami and it’s possible this tenant Does not have full citizenship status. 

Adwords can be beneficial when used in conjunction with some SEO tactics. 

(his tactic with these people). 

Your purchase price should maybe be +/- $2000 from the appraisal price, but typically you should pay the appraisal value.Everything should be in-house - rehab work, management, etc - a turnkey company shouldn't be making you sign a contract for a third party management company because then they aren't really accountable to you long-term, the PM is.Beware of scarcity or scare tactics in sales.

While his tactic is great for him, it is patently unfair on a non short sale deal.

I've never structured seller financing.I've thought of a near full price offer with interest only for 5 years (a little gamble that rents will continue to rise and values will at least stay steady) or the financing and paying them $225ish.The owner said my proforma seemed faulty accurate (I lose $206 monthly after moving and fully renting) so there needs to be wiggle room for win-win here.Asking the BP universe: what offer methods and tactics have you found to be most successful?
