This has allowed more homes to get on the market and stay on the market and has inspired some FOMO on seller's who thought they could ride the crazy to the top realize they may have missed the top but are still ready to sell.

If you find a mentor the old fashioned way, they aren't going to be a grifter or have ulterior motives.Just keep putting yourself out there and tell EVERYBODY in town what you are looking to do.

Also, I want to quickly call out that this is my 2,000th forum post It's been a wild ride and I've learned so much from this community.

I was looking to go after creative finance options or forms of seller financing.However, I wanted to see if anyone has had any recent success stories lately of obtaining real estate in this fashion?

How will it benefit you to have a 1 year lease vs month to month and ride it out until you decide to change the terms.

Or that you want to target the growing population and ride the growing wave of development on the Franklinton peninsula and therefore target that region. 

Price adjustments can be seen to go in a more favorable fashion for many buyers in the ratio of Sold Price vs List Price.

Start small and grow from there.You can start with a big rehab and find a GC, but you are in for a ride.

I suppose you could take that if you need/want the cash to ride out the vacancy and refi later at a presumably lower rate than the 8.75 but you'll eat the appraisal and finance costs....

Fortunately, a guest was there who alerted me to the problem in a timely fashion.
