I'm tired of working for others and want to eventually do this full time.

I'm really tired, and going to spend some long awaited time with my wife and kids.

He was a tired landlord... and didn’t want the landlord / rental headache… so he loved my idea...Made a chunk of cash about a year later when I listed it for sale with a Realtor and closed on a 3 way close...

In hind site, I would do it again, because from the contractors perspective, they could be wasting their time if I have absolutely no money involved or tied up in the property (a tire kicker).So, that's where I'm at so far in my process, and thanks to everyone on this site for contributing helpful information!

I could do that, at the sacrifice of all other operations, 20K to me is a chunk of change and contrary to popular myth life as a rehabber is not a 20K a week income, that is a great month for me, GREAT.So I know what I need, private funding, and I know it exists, and that others have done it, I am just clueless how.And before anyone says FHA i will answer I have a really good CPA and no patience to wait 2 years of payments to uncle sam just to get a conventional mortgage good for 1 or 2 properties, cost vs reward dosnt warrant it.I have a rock star property manager, I spent months researching and finding the best, I have the crews, knowledge, even properties, just not a few bucks to make the cheap money people happy.Advice please....... more detailed the better, like say names and addresses, phone numbers, lol.I feel foolish putting it out here like this but I am sick n tired of throwing away great deals and banging my head on the wall over just 1 single detail away, especially having majority LT funding in place, just not ready to sell my horse to buy the cart.

Im just wondering what frustrations you all have with your local REIAs and if you have found a better solution for networking.It seems to me like its just a bunch of tire kickers except for maybe 2 or 3 people per REIA.It seems to me like there is alot of "sales pitchyness" and most of what is being "taught" I already know from one book or another.So has anyone else had this type of experience?...

please help. im suppose to call him back around lunch time today . im lost . thanks for helping in advance....oh yeah the house is move in ready. new carpet,paint, hvac,10 year old roof,plumbing,electric,hes just tired of being a landlord

This will also weed out the other tire kickers.You should be honest with the home owner but remember its all on how you explain it to them.

He stated to me that he was soon to 79 years old, retired Army officer, well-off financially (says that he doesn't need the money), and was tired of managing the properties himself.

never get tired of this feeling :)
