When I sold, I took my profit and moved to better neighborhoods.Find motivated sellers (there should be MANY) and cut your most insulting low ball offer in half.

That is unless the property was extremely undervalued or I was planning to live in one half of the duplex because I liked the area a lot.

I have no desire to constantly raise the rent I would prefer a slightly lower ROI and have my tenants happy and remain in the house for a long time.Thank you for your responseFrank settecasi, partners with Joe casi my half brother if u want to look me up in your records

We have used LendingHome around a half dozen times and have had no issues whatsoever with them.

1) I don't do them but I believe in the second half of the double close, that's between you and your buyer and no RE agent or commission is involved.  

As you may be figuring out, half the battle is finding someone who will show up and do the work when they say they will.

Now we're in a breach of contract, with only $3,500 deposit at stake on a $333,500 package.Gave an extension of 2 weeks to hammer out some type of deal agreeable to all parties involved.Cut 2 properties from the package ($160,000),  Buyers came back with half-down and Seller agreed to finance the other half for 1 year with guaranteed monthly income.The Buyers will have enough time to finish repairs, get all units occupied, obtain permanent financing, and everyone comes out a winner.Hard to make up 7 months of your life.

The new town homes going up start at $375,000.00 and another builder is building estate homes that sit on half an acre starting at the low $900,000.00.

I would rather join with 2-3 investors here in NCal and have one half or one third of the profits that CA provides instead of relying on a "team" thousands of miles away that has no equity stake. 

In my experience, I would say that only about half the people get owners title insurance.
