The reason I asked about the amount is I see people always searching for the "perfect note" when they had 100 opportunities pass right by and spend thousands to buy 5 loans a year which they could have done little work and still found similar loansWe buy non performing to get them reperforming and we also have some shorter term RTL's (performing) for cash flow purposes.

I hope no one is using this to actually purchase property subject to.

Any reason why you need a "private person" here? 

I’m looking for insights on which states allow you to list a property on the MLS as soon as you have it under contract—but before actually owning it.I know that some states have strict regulations around wholesaling and marketing equitable interest, while others allow it as long as you disclose your intent.

Quote from @Chris Brewer: They’re actually asking more for the property that’s just the number I think I can buy it for.

The reason why I ask is because that could determine what loan options are available to you (and interest rates). 

@Jason Wray I actually already work with the Federal Savings bank and am currently refinancing one of my properties with you.

Hence the lot on which the house resided was taxed at a 45% discount based on actual value, while the tennis lot was taxed at about 4 times what it should have been by value. 

Depends on the actual deal I have seen 85/15 rarely 90/10 but keep in mind your primary home will have a second lien on it typically if your LTV is over 75%. 

Based on the information provided, you can only claim a capital loss when you actually sell or dispose of your REIT investment, not when the REIT simply returns a portion of your principal.
