Ask about their deals and the partner companies to the club.I'm sort of disenchanted with my local club.

I don't do this sort of marketing, so no experience with taking these calls.

You'll have to find some other way to cover the down payment, closing costs, and other costs.Another alternative is to do hard money or some other sort of rehab loan to get into the property, then fix it up, lease it up, and refi.

REO's are usually sold without any sort of property disclosure.

I'm hoping this down turn will help create more motivated sellers and when I present a take it or leave it number based on operations they will understand the true price.

If you have your own money, or some other sort of financing (e.g., subject to, rehab loan from a bank) your money costs may be less.As you hold it you'll be paying for utilities, taxes, and insurance.

My name is John and Im sort of a new person here on the forums.

I have a couple questions.Does anyone have experience with some sort of agriculture agreement with the county/state that allows for a tax free property in exchange for a promise to not develop said property for X number of years.

How did you end up finding the motivated sellers?

It's actually very motivating to be able to know that I can do it and age will not be an issue.
