The seller 100% does not want to go under contract with someone who isn’t going to close or is going to ask for a discount after it’s under contract.

What kind of deals do you specialize in?

My agent knows I invest and brings me both his best investment deals as well as gives me access to pocket listings for investments from his brokerage.

It includes space to spell out specifically what the tenant is responsible for.

Usually costs me $5k to fix, not a big deal.

Is it possible to sell or refinance one unit to pay the other off completely. 

Many new investors claim to have analysis paralysis, but that's usually an excuse for either a lack of confidence (you need more meetups and more authentic relationships with other real estate investors) or shiny object syndrome (you want to house hack, but you like apartments, but also flipping, and what about storage).

What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

To evaluate Real esteate deals for creative financing, start by identifying seller motivations i.e. financial distress, desire for passive income, do they need a downpayment on their next house, etc  and property factors like equity or existing financing terms.

If you need a referral code or more information let me know.
