Maybe your local branch manager can point you in the right direction.

I received some amazing feedback in another discussion I started here:https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/432/topics/584285All the advice I received was great and I'd like to give a warm thanks to everyone who responded.So as a follow-up, I just thought I'd post a more direct question with actual figures.

We have multiple deals under contract now and are looking at other syndication money streams, including those individuals with self-directed IRA’s.

Thanks for pointing me in that direction.

We are buying directly from the seller, so no RE commision on th buy.Any advice for a newbie flipper?

Knowing your state's l/t laws, and knowing what exactly is in your lease will go a long way for you to take more direct action.We have a "zero tolerance" clause in our leases regarding both domestic violence and illegal drugs (or legal drugs used illegally).  

I tried to make a lower offer, but it seems the agent/friend is driving the deal, so can't really speak to the seller directly.

Now if you're buying direct to seller you're going to have property owners swear that their tenant has never been late in the past 300 years until it comes time to collect prorated rent at closing.
