Purchased for $69,000, I tackled everything from a new roof to interior updates, transforming it into a move-in-ready home.After months of surprises (and a few headaches), I sold the property for $145,000.

Of you’re tired of endless negotiations, shotgunning offers to sellers who have no intention of selling, or chasing every “deal” that’s never going to be sold at a price an investor can profit, give this method a shot.  

There's several reasons why I've bought and sold over 1,000 properties and just bought another one yesterday. 

Once this is done then the property can be sold. 

@Maxwell Silva - In marketing / advertising, products and services are not expected to be sold the first time a potential customer is exposed to them.

Have both homes completed and sold in less than a year.. and then are taking a much needed break from construction:)Any advice or ideas would so appreaciated!

I tied up $65k of my investment money for 3 years and sold a property after a judgement for a 5.8% return.

Or if the event never occurs, destroy it like it never existed.In states where a deed is effective immediately upon execution that would not be possible.Of course as stated previously a pocket deed if recorded does violate the borrower's right of redemption and the right to have a property sold at a commercially reasonable foreclosure sale.

That might be a way to start, finding recently sold land on zillow, back trace agents to sold listings and tell them you might have some land coming up soon and see if they have buyers.
