We all have signed up for and waited thru the cooling off period, and even invested in several of the platforms.  

It hurts to have already spent $4,000ish in closing costs and then come back and pay it again now that the 6 month seasoning period is up.  

First My Qualified Intermediary is a lawyer who said he can change or back date the 45 day period for identifying a like-property.

If you intend residing in a home for 5-10 years you're spreading those closing costs over a lengthy period.

I would keep in house for a period of time.Thanks for feedback and forcing me to look at my numbers a little harder. 

When I was younger, I used to live (for a short period) in Dundalk and Essex areas of Baltimore.

As a wholesaler,  try to have inspection at least 15 days, I leave of earnest unless seller asks, it's NOT required (at least in AZ),  and try to have a cute period in the contract. 

Joined the site a few weeks back and can't believe how much I've picked up/learned in such a short period of time.

In addition to education and tests, the broker's license requires a minimum of 2 years full time experience ... hmmmm, I wonder why, well, I'll tell you, it's because you don't know what your are doing for at least that period of time and can get yourself in trouble, maybe longer, maybe never.As a broker myself, with no agents at this time, I understand the difficulties. 

Owner financing can be a great deal but it can also mean the owner is not prepared to show you the full financials (they often done have them and under report income to the IRS) or there could be some 'surprise' infrastructure or other issues that an appraisal and professional inspections will uncover but a quick OF due diligence period might not.Definitely talk to city/county officials to see if permits are needed to operate the Park.
