Very often I read about people getting the ball rolling without having much cash on-hand.

I've emailed the realitor and said i want to put it under contract subject to inspection.I found a buyer I think, anything I'm missing, just write up an assignment contract and give it to him, and hand him the lead?

On the other hand, if you expect to get great tenants, you'll will certainly get them.Good luck!

If you have friends or connections who are already investing, ask them who they use and make an appointment with contract in hand.

I set up a time with them for a online live demo with two amazing people that held my hand thru the whole process.

No one has handed me my business but I did become educated by one of those "REI mentoring groups".

Also that these are usually good deals for a short time for the GM's of the small LLC's but that there are too many hands in the pie for the small investor.

Tim,Short Sale (two words) more professionally referred to in the lending industry as a "Short Payoff" means that the institution at hand is accepting less than what is owed to them.

I will keep looking in the meantime I will try my hand.
