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.

I've done lots of reading and attended a few seminars over the last few months and am so motivated to get out there and start finding deals and doing some deals!!!

Josh tells me that many are being sorted so things should get even better with a bit more time.I would still like the ability to tune or otherwise adjust my preferences.

As more and more home owners find themselves in negative equity territory banks have every motivation to negotiate.I also think that a large percentage of the home owner population would rather avoid foreclosure even if that means hanging on to a home that is worth less than the outstanding mortgage for some time.So if somebody is willing to pay a mortgage for a place with negative equity the bank has every incentive to keep that person in the house.

I am sure you can offer your perspective when people ask PM related questions.If you want to get into fix and flip deals then check out the forums that focus on the deals and the details relating to refurbishment.What sort of properties do you manage?

I agree with PNW, I would also look for distressed properties (minor cosmetics only) and motivated sellers to add instant equity.

I’m highly motivated and willing to intern in the right situation.
