Our model is buy and hold real estate through pure rentals, personals turned rentals all being class A properties so smaller margin but lower expenses.This site has tons of great sources.

We follow the southwest airlines models, we have smaller profit margins but have smaller expenses at the same time.Everyone has a their own niche and way to success. 

My favorite one was determine which business model worked best.

Just need some help with the model below.

If you got possession in 30-45 days after the auction, that would not be a bad outcome as far as I am concerned.The forums at foreclosureradar.com have a lot more foreclosure-specific advice.Congratulations by the way!

That is how you also would want to model out the economics of the asset.

Saying it is a bad business model is a cop out.

Dear All,I discovered a great business model last year that's worked very well for me during this short time.

It seems somewhat better for cash flow, but resale seems to be a struggle... not that I want to hold them for 20 years, but following Brandon's model, it seems like by year 3-5 or so, I would want to sell off the properties (and to be honest, most of them I could pay off the mortgages with the cashflow after 5 years anyways). 

The investor gets excited at possibly getting 20k or 30k off a flip which I understand would motivate them.If a broker/agent does such a thing they do it out of necessity because I think if they possessed other skills they wouldn't run themselves ragged doing that.3 commercial deals at 100k commission apiece in a year or 200 residential transactions at 1,500 commission for 300k commission.
