I've lost 2 great investment opportunities because the traditional financing process has been so slow 

@Dawn Young I've never done this but understand that the mobile home has to be converted from personal property to real property before a traditional lender will make a loan like this.

Traditional financing is extremely hard to use to flip properties, especially if you want have 20 rental properties in 5 years. 

I expected the number of responses to be pretty small for a variety of reasons, not least among them, that most people who have been able to hold on the last ten years aren't on BP, whether by choice or by ignorance (they aren't searching for RE information hence never finding or knowing about BP).  

As time goes on, I would expect to also offer a master lease agreement to the general public as well, instead of the traditional property management contract.I would like to hear feedback on this plan, especially from people who have tried it.

Or if you take title on a quit-claim, you're getting whatever interest that seller had, along with any clouds on that title.Most common way is to have a traditional closing that clears title and pays off any liens, issues a title policy, and gives you true marketable title - that is only encumbered by whatever you have encumbered it with (mortgage, trust deed, UCC 1, Promissory note, etc.)If you don't / can't go through traditional title (say for example, you buy at a tax foreclosure sale), I'd say it's best practice to go through the quiet title process.  

I come at if from a traditional landlord background.

It's a personal choice.  

Good choice Chris and Good Luck.  

I Portland you would not have those choice's... there are no banks that are going to lend long term and portfolio.. typical would be 20 due in 5  6 to 6.5%  with one point.
