Which I have heard a guru say he uses as a technique, no escrow, simple paperwork between buyer and seller.  

I have about 10 doors (started with 2 a couple months ago), I have been trying the farm technique with Realestate brokers in my areas but I want another route.

Usually FSBO listings (but there are other techniques).  

So the buyer's technique got them a $100,000 price reduction.

The Gator method is apparently one technique that may have some flaws that have been exposed here but may also be just the motivator for some people who would not otherwise even have taken a chance to get involved in real estate "investment."

Here's a technique you can try right away, and it's free.

Network for collaboration, learn from successful investors, and discuss ROI and financing techniques for meaningful conversations with Houston investors.Good Luck!

We just bought a house in a highly desired older neighborhood.The owner agreed to owner finance it with 5k down over 5 years at 0% interest.We did put some money into the house to fix it up some.The rental income will cover the payments.Always ask for owner financing, the answer might surprise you.Work with money partners to do more deals.Join your local Real Estate Club and learn new techniques and grow your network.

I have taken dozens of flights for free using credit card points, but Dave isn't going to teach that technique to people who can't control their spending because there's too much risk that they won't have the same discipline I do.Dave teaches people to invest safely because he doesn't want people with no financial discipline taking his advice wrong and chasing get-rich-quick schemes.
