Once he found investments good enough for his standards and bought them at the right price, he kept them. 

In the real world, it's not good enough to hope that the expense number is lower.

I've thought about this for over 10 years, finally took some action 2 years ago and bought my first rental.  3 rentals into it and I feel like I have a good enough handle on this whole rental investing thing that I can take what I've learned and extrapolate it out into the future to make a plan for my exit from the corporate world.  

I'm not sure if its possible.Is this good enough to get someone to help finance?

If they say yes, it should be good enough.

If you do not have this room, then you better have your own cash to close the A to B or more likely, you didn't negotiate a good enough deal to begin with as Justin pointed out in one of his responses.

If the deal is good enough you can set up a closing with all parties at the same table and, all you have in the deal is your deposit.....

Wholesaling never interested me if it's a good enough deal I'll just keep it for myself.

I agree with the general assessment... it depends on the situation.However, I would say, that if you spend time cultivating some good relationships with buyers.... ones you can trust and you go to again and again (rather than mass marketing your wholesale deal), then it is so much easier to just assign.You can always use a blind HUD so the seller doesn't see assignment fee as long as you have a good enough relationship with the buyer.When you get a good buyer, treat them well!

I am hoping that I can come close to at least one deal in October.I would like to know if my letter is good enough.
