First red flag is if they say that they will shop your deal with a few different investors.  

In some cases, after running the numbers, I’ve even faced potential negative returns, causing me to miss out on promising deals here in South Florida.That brings me to my question: I currently own two homes—one is my primary residence, and the other is a rental property.

Anybody know how to analyze a subject to deal?

I've done a number of seller financed deals as a buyer. 

No dealing with tenants or long-term property management.

It seems to me that if I were the agent on the buying/selling side of these, I would save 2-3% on each deal (typical agent commission for each side).

I was wondering what the best way to structure a deal with seller carry is?

What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

So if you suddenly find a great deal and want to go for it, a tax return showing a massive loss could hurt your pre-approval chances.That said, if you’re not planning to buy anything else soon, deferring the depreciation might not be a bad move.

I have found deals in Moscow, McCall, Sand Point and Coeur d'Alene all in the last 45 days.
