Im attempting to build my credit in both the US and HK but its slow as younger me didn't do current me any favors.

A lot of people (not saying you) buy a property for a primary and attempt to turn it into a rental.

You can still attempt a "cash-for-keys" agreement, but if the tenant refuses to move you won't be able to process anything via the court system.

If you never attempted to rent it, as in for a long term investment, it’s a flip for tax purposes, regardless if you hold for 12 mo.s.....taxed as ordinary income plus 15.3% ss/med.

Problem is, in my amateur attempts to do so, I found that there is so much guess work involved, especially when you're a novice.

Yes a wholesaler might do this more efficiently and have a better contact-to-close ratio than you, but only because of more TTP (talk to people) attempts - if you can get over the analysis paralysis and dial the phone you can get the experience as well, eventually a deal will come through.

And can we maybe attempt to do a deed transfer in a couple of years after things have settled down or will i face the same issue? 

My wife is terrified and allergic to roaches; I have a 10 month old that crawls around and attempted to chase a roach.

The attorney review portion of the transaction, in my experience, feels more like a formality, than an attempt to protect my interests.2.

This a not an attempt to sell anything, just trying to help a fellow investor.
