My boss just sold his house in Denver that was completely remodeled, 3bd, 2b, 1 car garage, for over $420K!

And I have used all cash, FHA, 203k, conventional, refinance into conventional, hard money, and private money.

Also, when you have an attorney file the private documents for your land trust, those documents become protected under client/attorney privilege, another layer of protection.

@Aja Leafe-Hall I just sold a 3plex to an investor who'd used a HELOC this week, funny coincidence!

The realtor association has good information on which politicians are pro/against private property rights. 

It's also an upstairs unit,  private door but all that is downstairs is a coat closet and then a flight of steps to a 1-level condo.  

I am in TX, I want to lock in a commercial property with a private seller, he doesn't want to go the traditional route of selling outright just yet, due to the property having items of value that need to be sold first.

Private Money can definitely help you establish your portfolio and the right lender can help you expand it.

Property was never below 92% occupied when we purchased and when we sold it was 96%. 

Make sure you have a buyers list that receives private communications.
