I would echo what James said above, and start with a good lender who will guide you (and not sell you), give you options, and if now is not the ideal time for you to pull the trigger, lay out a good road map to get you there. 

It's possible that a high pressure gas line would trigger the same kind of failure.

Not the ideal way since you don't have anything concrete but enough to pull the trigger on a deal.   

Doing so can trigger the alienation clause. 

There is a lot that can be said so I am going to try to remain short.Knowledge: The first thing to do is learn as much as you can to be comfortable to pull the trigger when the time comes.

Those CRMs may be just fine for what I'm doing, but before I pull the trigger on one of them, I figured I'd ask the experts :)Here's a partial list of what I'm doing and how I'd like to do it:1) I am currently identifying properties using Reonomy.  

I could even just charge my 42% down payment and be happy with that and manage the transfer of funds free of charge for 10-11 years.This deal is going to happen and all I am trying to do is create options that will trigger the seller to sign my contract.

Remember that the transfer from personal names to LLC can trigger due-on-sale clauses and also generate realty transfer taxes.
