If you can not pay rent and pay down a mortgage simultaneously compared to paying a couple thousand for a 2 bed unit, that's a win in my book. 

Forgiving a debt is something I have done many times in this space as it is usually a "win-win" case.  

It was a win for our end buyers too.

After reading the BP article on How to Start Wholesaling, it appears that I have overlooked a very vital step in starting my wholesaling business. I have no local mentors in the Atlanta area who I would more than will...

I have been given a pre-market opportunity to purchase a rental property from an owner, however I am not sure if the rents are capable of creating an instant cash flow while living for free.Any advice from members in this area would be greatly appreciated.Thanks!

I think these relationships should be win-win and i would avoid using your agent as a tool.All this said, I haven't bought anything yet, but I'm getting into position to purchase my first house in the next couple months. 

Based on the number of investors we know, and the market we have seen for HUD properties in Florida, we set up a "bidding machine" for investors that specifically targets HUD properties.We send weekly spreadsheets of "regions" grouped by counties.We have customized spreadsheets for each investor that tracks progress.We treat this as an actual business silo that our investor clients love, because all the heavy lifting is done.As a Real Estate Brokerage you need to:Define an opportunityDifferentiate yourself from every other competitor out thereMake it simple for your clients to do business with youShare their pain AND their joyDo whatever you can to continue to make your relationship a win/win environmentToday was an example of this strategy as we won three homes for three separate investors, and all of them are thrilled.

I'm a previous landlord of 4 homes but now interested in teaming up to rehab/flip homes in win-win deals.  

I think I can, with the help here, structure a deal so we both win.

a lot of little wins can be taken down by one big LOSS..
