The niche of sourcing vacant land via direct mail has been growing quickly over the last few years.It can be difficult to ascertain how legitimate a specific buying company is but the quality of their communication is often a good indicator.

Just wanted to see if this is a legitimate thing anyone has heard of before.    

I have one extra ticket bought on the early bird with Pro Discount - $800Plus have an extra room booked at the Venue.

Spend some money on it and make it into a wedding venue? 

If you are looking to spend $150 on a report (that means nothing to you) it would only save you $350 over doing it legitimately and without hassle...I purchase most of my properties without and inspection contingency - the only ones I do get an inspection on are properties where I want to highlight issues and badger further. 

I have been working on the place with my handyman husband - but I know that we need to start legitimizing the property and making it a legal ADU, approved by the city.

HI LindsayIf the lender doesn't require any upfront fees then that would personally give me a higher confidence level they're are legitimate. 

The transaction involves:Having your business formed as a C CorporationThat business establishing a 401(k) planRolling over an old 401(k) and/or IRA to the new 401(k) planThe plan then does an employee stock option purchase of the parent C CorporationThe retirement plan is now a shareholder of your business, and the plan capital can be used in any legitimate business manner, for startup costs, marketing, salaries including your own, etc.There are no taxes or penalties for using the funds in this way, but the business itself operates in the taxable world, so it is somewhat of a trade off between access and tax sheltering.It makes sense with significant capital, when the business will be providing a product or service.  

Proximity to Attractions:Consider the property's proximity to popular attractions like Disney World, Universal Studios, and other entertainment venues.

The title company said from their end, he seems legitimate.
