However, I have a car note that I desperately want to save up and pay off by July 2017!

I was renting out on Airbnb, but things for Barcelona have changed - the government is overprotective towards the hotel business of the city and they desperately want to have your income.

In a strong market, there are very few that will take less unless they are desperate.

He isn't as desperate as that makes him sound, but I still think $255K is a good deal for this commercial property.

But you will have to find a landlord "desperate" enough.You are BREEDING dogs in a rental!

FTL needs housing soso desperately that I can't see appraisal being a problem where the numbers won't make sense if you got the land at a good enough price.

So there are people out there so desperate for return they'll take a chance on this guy again.  

@Lori Williams I have out of state investors call me all the time desperate to sell properties that they bought in areas where people literally will steal the aluminum siding off as far as they can reach....but the prices that they paid are ridiculous....it's highway robbery and in all cases, when I saw the properties they were wrecks and the worst part is most of them paid cash so they didn't even have the protection of an appraisal and they're too trusting, believing what the person selling the property to them is telling them without doing their own due diligence. 

hey jon i sent you an email with an excel file i wanted to see if you can help with. i just dont understand these investors around there then. they are getting deals at 65k then rehabbing them completley and selling fo 125k-135k. that would be the same numbers even after holding costs. some of these people must be getting desperate because they are buyin homes that need ATLEAST 20k in work for like 80-100k and they are only worth 130k!!

Because the house was in desperate need of repairs I was able to get 100% financing for the house and all closing fees which was $32,000 by handing over my $13,500 as a draw on repairs that would need to be made.
