Will they throw my offer out because it has a 20-day inspection period, a 45-day close, or a contingency based on review of the POS inspection?

Point is, whatever the number of the hard money lender costs she would typically incur, if that could be reduced by going seller financing, then she could afford to get closer to what the seller wants in price.

There is some additional inspection/consultant fees involved.

I've spoken with sellers this week, viewing properties, and started a yellow letter campaign.Hoping this will bring me closer to my first deal.

and once seasoned (borrower has paid on time for at least 12 months), it could command a price much closer to par rather than having to discount it a lot.

There is no inspection period or subject to offers in HUD homes as far as I know.

Most are contingent, at a minimum, on inspection and financing being agreeable.

The ability to set up defaults (such as cash offer, closing 10 days after contract date, no inspection contingency, etc) would be great as well.Does anyone know of something like this?

Thanks everybody.I have looked at Baltimore a little closer on Ned Carey suggestion and I think it really has possibility.

Even if all the numbers work the home inspection is usually the kicker.
