@Curt SmithI'm not sure why you think that me offering seller finance means that I am a preditory lender.

With 30 years of residential construction experience and having built several homes in the past few years, I bring a strong foundation in project execution and quality craftsmanship.Right now, I’m seeking lenders to help me unlock home equity for property acquisitions and to expand my portfolio.

Build a strong team with experienced lenders, real estate agents, and property managers, and educate yourself through books and podcasts.

Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

But, the seller will never close a sale until the buyer releases that claim and withdraws the affidavit because a new buyer's title company will not issue a title policy and the new buyer's mortgage lender will not make a mortgage loan.Its not worth doing in this case but when real money is involved it is pretty effective.

Sellers worried they won't be able to sell in time before their lender takes action. 

Most out of state investors are better off just acting as private lenders, buying low cost index funds or keeping their money in HYSAs.

Talking with a real estate CPA and a good lenders can also give you perspective on your finances and how to reach your goals. 

@Tim Bergstrom I am a lender with a local bank here in Louisville and an investor personally as well. 

Here's link: https://rent.app/landlordAppears they are a type of payday advance lender for rent payments.Seeing more & more of this on banks statements for rental applciations, so predicting we'll all be accepting rent from them eventually for Class C & D tenants that can't seem to get out of their paycheck-to-paycheck cycles.
