People are always in different circumstances with regard to life or financial difficulties, deals will pop up, you just have to stick to it longer than the others.

This was very helpful and I will shoot you a PM as soon as I get any more questions that pop in my head

Just wanted to pop in and introduce myself, 27 years young been self employed since I was 20 and looking to get into real estate investing.

Even if its a mom & pop owner they have to account for all the additional costs that any investor would or at least most of them.

There is no mortgage and it is currently rented out to a pop-up restaurant on a month to month basis. 

I've been back and forth with mom & pop (off market) for about a month.

@Nayan Patel the tar lease will pop up if you google it.

Yes, sometimes you will be that busy, clearing up a furnace issue for the guy AT closing and the couple that lost 3 houses to multiple bids had the perfect place pop on the market, you can get them in tonight, write the offer and start working the listing agent for info to make the best offer.

Generally you would pay roughly $30-$50 per picture and could layer in virtual furniture and items into your pics to help make the pictures pop on your marketing pieces.

typically the smaller mom and pop credit unions are easier to deal with and gave me better rates. if this is something you're thinking about pursuing long term starting a relationship with them would be my recommendation. a lot of times they have the latitude to do things the bigger banks don't want to deal with because they're smaller and have to fight for more business
