So, get a good lawyer when you do any contract.My experince has been, if a person is seeking a land contract, they can't get a loan from a bank or other lender.Land Contracts do work if done properly.

Whether you are making $XX an hour working at the grocery store or the same(or more) driving a truck isn't going to really effect your wholesaling business.

. #4 I think a local realtor could also effectively weigh in on the value of the property as it relates to the school (ie resale value after flip or down the road).All the best!

I have many tools I know I can use, whether passive or active advertising, but I am looking for maybe which specific is most effective and how to approach a seller after I have their attention.

My process for this was to first determine that there was not a surviving spouse and then to see if the deceased had owned any property through the county's tax assessors site.To those who have done this type of marketing before, my questions is this: is it more effective to send letters to the deceased's address (addressed generically to "Owner", not a specific name) and hope it gets forwarded to the heirs or should I research who the children are and send letters to them?

This would effectively make you the property manager and give you the option to purchase the property at some point down the road.

The payment was not real large so from a worker's comp liability perspective, we are effectively self-insured for claims at this level.

Anyone here gone this deep without a lawyer?

We made the mistake of using a general real estate lawyer prior to retaining Sanford Kahn, and that cost us several months and then needed to restart the process because they didn't really know what they were doing.

I am going to talk to my lawyer as well but I figured I would get some free legal advice from the experienced rehabbers first.
