I’m ears too!!

These deals are much easier to get locked down and offer more options for disposition strategy, but would rely on a qualified buyer pool who would be earning more than the six figures through w2 or a business.Benefits:- No Down payment deals- Seller carries 25-50% of purchase price- Lower interest rate than banks.

Hi Nicole, it sounds like you're in a fantastic position with your buy-and-hold strategy, especially locking in a 2% interest rate!

The lead came through one of our absentee equity mailing lists, and after meeting with him, we locked up the deal.

You probably can’t put locks on individual bedrooms because that would turn your building into a hotel (unregulated, unregistered).The polite description of your plan is “folly in the extreme.”

I'd speculate that your CPA failed to check the "complete disposition of activity" checkbox in his tax software, keeping these losses locked instead of releasing them.2.

The thread has since been locked.

I also had some damage this summer when someone locked their dog in a powder room while they were away.
