But to answer your question more directly, do what other wholesalers are not willing to do, build your own lead lists, and market your business better than the rest.

@Parker Borofsky @Robert OmbresHey Ya'll,Wolf Laurel has a ski resort in the development, as far as I know, the only one in the area directly north of Asheville.  

I've read through the contract and will summarize here with simplified numbers (not the actual numbers) what I believe the contract says and follow up with some questions for you more knowledgeable members:1) Purchase Price: $100k2) Initial Down Payment: $10K3) Buyer pays seller monthly payments based on 30 year amort of 90k at 5% which is $484/month4) Remaining principal balance to be paid off on the defined Closing Date (roughly 2 years from now)5) Buyer pays taxes and insurance6) Buyer to provide Seller a Loan Commitment from a Lender on or before the Closing Date7) Seller will transfer Deed when Buyer pays full Purchase Price8) Buyer will pay the Seller's existing monthly mortgage payment that exists on the property, which is $100/month, directly to the bank.

Can you transfer the deed at that point directly to a land trust?

I truly believe that 'many hands make light work' and that a 'rising tide lifts all ships' !

Hello Jessica,I may be able to point you in the right direction.  

2) Based on my first question, a lot of folks will say to open a Self Directed IRA to avoid the tax and penalty.

However, I don't know of any that will work direct with an insured, i.e. without an agent or broker involved. 

I'm looking for a contractor in Tacoma, WA that can do a little of everything to help me do light to moderate rehabs on single family homes that I'm purchasing for rentals.
