I'm assuming yes if you went with option 2, but option 1 is below market value because you are giving them a deal on the house. 

PM's manage tons of properties and know how to deal with applicants, if they were asking me a bunch of questions there may be something I don't really know whether I should answer or not or how to answer and if I'm the owner I can't really tell them I don't know.

As long as they have a good track record, it can be a great deal.

Given that, we would get an immediate boost in cash flow which will also be very predictable month to month and save myself a bunch of time managing my property managers and dealing with the ups an downs of active real estate.

Spoke with owner and made a deal with hime for Thomas Handy, Elmer T Lee, and Pappy 15.  

I just moved here from the Boston area and it seems like the real estate taxes will make coming out of a deal with positive cash flow a very tricky endeavor.Jay

The days of doing deals with 100% financing left about 15 -20 years ago.  

I am interested in investing in SFH or small multi family homes, BRRRR deals and Flipping.Looking forward to engaging with all of you.Best,Shams

After closing sold a cellular tower lease that generated $790,000 in cash reducing our acquisition price down to ~$56.00 per SF What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

Hey all you land trust junkies I just got an e mail from a title company in MO that closed a deal a few years ago and the buyer put it in a land trust they are trying to sell .. but the title company wont insure it as they claim land trust are not legal entities in MO.so title needs me to do a new deed to clean up title which of course we will do.. but just think if the sellers in other situations were not in the bizz like us and would not understand or respond or you cant find them all those land trust are dead in the water currently.
