My passions are God, family, and chasing every dream that God puts in my heart!  

You don't spend a ton of time chasing stuff that can't happen.. and listening to owners is a waste of time they have no clue they think they should be able to develop..

While the nothing/low money down investor can still find a deal, they are becoming rarer as more money chases fewer properties.

We're opening a business account with Chase, they offer ACH for a small fee already.

Is paypal or Chase Quick Pay not an option?

Just like any industry, there's alot of good people but also you'll be amazed by the number of people in the market who claim to be direct to the seller and can find you notes, but god forbid, might cost you alot of money to try to chase the actual source when it comes to recordings, assignment chain, etc...2) Make sure there are no tax liens on the property, this can wipe out the 1st.3) Buy in a low foreclosure timeline state (Mostly non-judicial states)4) Of course it will be good if you find high equity notes (BPO is higher than UPB) and you buy 50% off of UPB, however, at the end of the day, even if you don't find equity notes, that doesn't make it a bad  deal.5) Also, there are many reasons why banks would sell the notes but mainly: - They won't have to keep reserve funds for every penny that's non-performing (They have to approx. leave 10x the amount of non-performing assets in reserves).- They can write-off the assets instead and get that 50% from investors.- They are also not in the business of real estate, so at foreclosure, they wouldn't want to take care of the property, insurance, etc...Hope this helps. 

I live a frugal life, my two past W2s were above 200k, total living expenses are just 35k, the rest goes to taxes and index funds at the momentAccount Closed I like to chase work opportunities, wherever they take me, and they took me in the bay area.
