ok well thanks for at least giving ur thoughts...I agree with you abt using the formula, but I was thinking of some other kind of creative financing that you cud use when the homeowner owns the home outright.

Being a landlord comes with its headaches, so be prepared for that, but the more units the merrier.

essentially, i was at ft dix, preparing to ship to iraq, and about 2 days before closing he demanded a significant price reduction because i was "ripping him off."

And since I also work at a restaurant, which most of my wages are under the table and do not appear on any W2, they cant take my word for it.I am wondering if there is any other means of obtaining a loan that will work with me and my current finance situation, without getting to creative.

I am prepared to puchase my first house and am wondering if it makes more sense to make it my primary residence (because of the perks that come along with this), or just do a short sale or wholesale deal for my first property.

If the house is actually worth $60,000 fixed up and it needs $10,000 in work, then $29,000 isn't that bad of a price.The thing about negotiating with the bank like that is you have to be prepared to lose the deal.

remember, "luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity."

The way most people make money in this game is by using creative techniques to solve one person's problem while being able to structure the deal to where it makes you a profit.The key to finding a lot of deals in this game is to look for the MOTIVATED SELLERS.... forget about looking for houses, that's a waste of time and requires way too much work!!!

Blah, turns out I am not as prepared as I thought I was.
