Then, over time, probably a few months, start to determine who you would feel comfortable doing a deal with.

You'll get lots of these, some with very enticing financial offers.

It looks like this offer never expires.

I made a relatively low offer and after one negotiation we settled on a price that was about 45% lower than the original list price.

If someone offered to finance this house to you at your current rates if you put down $250k would you do it?

Preforeclosure, Pre-Probate, tax liens are  OK -- however most seasoned and newbie investors are calling these leads as well and making offers.   

They offer a $10K repair fund to fix damages in addition to SD plus warranty for appliance repair etc.I have no say in whom they choose to move in, whether there are animals, limit on # of occupants etc. they reserve right to inspect property so i have no idea if they can tell me to remodel, paint etc.does this make sense i have a vacancy coming up in October (bad rental timing).

They used to offer exclusive properties but now it appears that they are pulling MLS listings and will connect you with an agent.

Harlem is undergoing a significant transformation, and properties like this one, which offer both historical significance and modern amenities, are in high demand.

So i put in an offer for 10% down conventional loan, $530,000 with 10k back to me for closing costs and it was accepted right away.
