It's a pretty standard business model that I follow and it is working well.  

My questions to you: What other items must I consider when carrying out a campaign?

Everyone knows that cash is king, and it is undeniable that these small chinese shops popping up is killing the market, but they need cash before they "order" the items from china, how do you beat that or how do you mitigate that or better yet, how do you ride with the flow?

Just not how I wanted to spend my days long-term.My "job" now is to figure out how I'll continue to grow my real estate portfolio, since the investment model I used to get where I'm at, is no longer viable in the market I've been in.  

A crooked seller could abuse the process, too, by not disclosing defects that he knows will be uncovered by the buyer, knowing full well the buyer will probably cancel the contract once the inspection items are discovered, yet the seller gets to keep the option money.

He examined the second-floor bathroom, where silver faucets were offset by walls painted in a “toasted almond” color, a pairing seen in many Starwood Waypoint homes because the firm purchases those items in bulk.

I didn't realize how many items I actually had.

You have your list of items requested, but the money is in the materials.

Nadine, We have started using land trusts quite a bit in our acquisition model.  

Paying off the line with all proceeds from all cash-flowing properties I have will help us expedite the "rinse-n-repeat" model giving us flexibility to have some steroid growth style action for our biz.
