I know after negotiations I will get it well under 50 percent.

The stainless hoses are $20 at lowes and they are easy to install, have a lifetime warranty, and don't kink.

The discount that a seller is willing to take can be identified as a percent of the balance of the loan (UPB) or the value of the real property via appraisals or broker price opinions (BPO).

Not sure what to do just like deal 2.My main concern is this is about 75 percent of my cash that I have used up by paying cash for these properties.

The new wording allows people with income or net worth over $100,000 to invest "10 percent of the annual income or net worth of such investor, as applicable, not to exceed a maximum aggregate amount sold of $100,000..." per Sec. 4 (6)(B)(ii).

I was poking around looking at the different funds available the other day and noticed that if I were to invest my retirement funds in my own company's stock, I'd get charged about 3/4 of a percent.

OTOH, I can use a MUCH smaller DP (3.5-5 percent vs. 20-25 percent) and possibly no money for rehab on a personal residence.

It costs 10 percent to sell a house, commissions, closing costs, wiggle room, etc.I agree w @Steve VaughanA Joint venture w the seller on a rehab should be1. give the seller a note and mortgage in exchange for a deed2. use private money for rehab3. use a joint venture agreement with the seller4.

Yes it is a WRAP.The insurance company says they cannot renew the policy for the previous seller unless she shows ownership.Bank financing is not an option right now.I do not want to dump that kind of cash into the property.Maybe I could add her back on title with a 1 percent interest in the property or something like that??

We have a package deal of ten percent down on each home with a guarantee of loans on the next 8 houses from a local broker.
