I see people without capital no experience or capital being taught to “help” desperate homeowners by tying up their property in a contract they have no way to successfully close without finding someone to pay more; costing the homeowner behind on their mortgage payments to lose valuable time that can easily lead to foreclosure; I see a program taught to students to take over a property ‘subject to”, leaving the seller unable to qualify for further mortgage financing, responsible for a loan secured by a property he no longer owns, and all held together by someone with 0 experience, limited or no capital, and no liability.

Becoming a property owner.The hardest part about this right now is underwriting deals, remaining patient and disciplined.Outside of that, the actual details of managing the property are only hard if you do not have systems in place, delegate responsibility, and don't fully comprehend what physical asset investments require-- capex & opex heavy.

Only allow inspections after the contract is signed and locked in (if possible).Ultimately, gauge the buyer's credibility—are they responsive, experienced, and able to close?
