Hey All,  We run a traditional Real Estate purchase and wholesaling company and do mostly traditional direct mail marketing but have been trying to do more and more on the internet.  

I'm working with a local lender that will finance up to 10 traditional mortgages that meet Fannie Mae/Freddie MAC guidelins.  

From what I'm told, traditional financing is hard to obtain with challenges like this.

I used non-traditional funding because the place needed rehabbing, and was empty.

I've been trying to develop relationships with active wholesalers in the area who are finding distressed situations and finding buyers outside of the traditional routes. 

The concentration of massive, unchecked power in a single Director marks a departure from settled historical practice and makes the CFPB unique among traditional independent agencies.”The Bureau was created in July 2011 out of the Dodd-Frank Act.

Not that those comments will count for much, but even when I have purchased in other cities I have used traditional turnkey companies.

I knew it was very popular, so I didn't know if there were so more, non-traditional companies

I'm expecting to do a traditional 20% down mortgage (and looking to do seller financing for the 20% down) but am open to other options including a VA loan or a more "creative" option.- The seller has 2 duplexes that appear identical in Columbia county between Madison and Lake Wisconsin.- The pro forma rent is listed for $975 / month (estimated from gross income).- Each unit is 3BR / 2BA,1200 square feet.  

Either way, if I am building wealth primarily in my 401(k) and perhaps in home equity, I am doing it way wrong IF I aspire to financial freedom at an age materially younger than traditional retirement age.If I were a typical American, interested in early financial freedom, I might well contribute to a 401(k), take the match, and defer my taxes.
