I have staged my last 2 sparingly with stuff i have at home. patio furniture, clocks, pictures,silk plants, towels in the bath etc.

I was once at a yard sale and a guy had a fair amount of bathroom fixtures, towel racks, etc.

I began my due diligence, had the property professionally inspected as I was taught, and the inspection results allowed me to re-enter a soft negotiation with the seller.

That's not going to happen with me on a foreclosure flip in a soft market.My question is this: When I pin down mathematically what she owes (and get a title search done to make sure there's nothing I missed), how low can I go without getting blown off and ruining my relationship with the agent?

When I got several complaints, I investigated and saw that the user had been sending messages to well over a dozen members soliciting.Looks like we've got a few of these NRU guys honing in for the kill again.

These can serve as back up exit strategies.For example, once you have a reliable tenant with cash flow in a property, you can find a buy and hold investor who will be much more interested in the property, since they'll be spared the trouble of finding a tenant for it.You can also owner finance the property and then sell the note to another investor.† You can sell part of the note for cash now and have income later or sell all of the note at once.If you're having trouble finding local investors, online auctions can offer your property to a potential global market.Even in a soft market some homes will still sell at or near full market value.† Of course, you don't want to incur six months of holding costs waiting for your price so you have to get creative to make your property stand out.† One way is to "Go Green".† A few touches like solar hot water with a tankless water heater back up and adding rain barrels to the downspouts in order to maintain landscaping inexpensively even during drought conditions can put your property ahead.† Everyone likes ideas that save them money and if it is good for the environment too that is an extra bonus.

It was clear to me that she was disgruntled, but not yet ready to throw in the towel.

I own 3 brands in the soft goods sector and one is an international award winning brand.

Milk and meat and frozen yes, but soft drinks, beer and other fridge items would still be ok.

Therefore, soft sites [older buildings] will need to be demolished to make room for new commercial space."
