Investor thinks a new buyer can get a better response from the city  simply by "trying to be straight" with them. 

Looking for a template for a wholesale deal to market to buyers.

Most buyers of flips are retail buyers who are looking for a SFR.

**mini footnote:  A wholesaller is similar to a Real Estate agent, but without the fees & deals worked are always off market, exclusive deals.It was extremely competitive and very exciting and I learned a whole lot.One of the challenges with the market in Madison County is that there are many many deep pockets not only in the area but also those that have trickled down from Middle Tennessee not to mention investors from throughout the worldthat are looking invest in real estate just like you.A lot of my Nashville Buyers have been asking about purchasing deals in Madison county for years.Real estate agents that I have worked with in the area say that there is zero inventory and if something comes available, the buyer has to be 100% ready otherwise someone else will get the deal.That being said, I personally think that there is a lot of potential in untapped areas of Madison County.One of the biggest differences between Nashvilles market in Huntsville‘s is that there hasn’t been anyone that has been brave enough to build/Rehab/re-vamp areas that are undesirable i.e. north side.

And I am not clear if the categorization of neighborhood is proper especially when the buyer is not familiar with the area.3.

By asking for owner financing, you aren't really providing a high level of credibility to the buyer if someone else comes along and shows them a bank statement with half-an-M in the account.

Look around on BP and you'll find that MFR buyers will have their own formulas for set-asides.Typical costs are vacancy, advertising, CAPEX, landscaping, trash, any shared utilities, water & sewer, CAM, HOA fees.Look at the BP Calculator too: https://www.biggerpockets.com/buy-and-hold-calcula...

I think we're going to see the demand slow and we may even see certain markets that have over-built which could seriously impact rent rates and occupancy rates.On the other hand, rising interest rates may result in fewer buyers and more renters.On the other hand, I think a lot of newbie investors are going to start selling off because they're tiring of dealing with tenants or they're divorcing or their market shifted or...Who knows?

Plus he wouldn't have to do little sweaky repairs to make it look spotless to a potential buyer.   

When you know that you have a buyer for any deal that you contract, you want to keep them happy by continually bringing them deals.
