I instantly imagined myself controlling a horse on the carriage with 2 ropes.Rick seem to be connecting the dots from both perspectives of creditors and from perspective of investors who creditors typically deal with when it comes to investors paying off first position lien or second mortgage liens, and stating that there are multiple ways of transferring deal using 2 strategies ... either using strategy of finalizing transaction to go through the final stages of probate (during either of the 3 stages) or buying off the lien judgement, depending not the equity...The probate concept of pre, open and closed state all have conditions that can be favorable or non favorable in relationship to you closing on the deal and getting it under contract.To be honest I am also a bit new to probate concept and tax liens and judgements and subject to types of acquisitions.All of this real estate Mumbo jumbo makes my head to be honest spin sideways.However, the multi dimensional factors and art of the deal from the standpoint of multiple variables and it’s inner dependencies indeed makes real estate investing quiet interesting endeavor to follow.As you dive deeper and deeper into variety of strategies... you gain compounded knowledge that in reality most certainly can be amazingly beneficial to folks who are interested in wanting to outgun their completion.In fact I would not be surprised at all with Rick stating that straddle play method of controlling the deals can outgun rehabbers using the power of negotiation.However... imagined if you can intersect the dots across multiple strategies and be able to rehab it... how cool would that be?

If you win, you become instant owner.

I guess a lot will come down to your investment strategy, whether partnering is an option, and in this case, the speculative risk of a appreciating asset v instant cash flow.

The home will offer instant equity but with some updates which it needs will almost double the current equity which I could use towards future investments.
