But, if I want to sell the property in 5 years and can't find a buyer, I may have to sell for $20K less than I bought it for.

In wholesale deals, the property is typically bought and sold as is and the Buyer is usually another Investor.

I have an investment property which I bought under a LLC. 

I bought a couple of properties via HOA lien foreclosure and started paying the 1st mortgages on both.

Most of my properties are from bank foreclosures, but I have bought one from the sheriffs delinquent property tax sale for about 25 cents on the dollar.

We have a triplex with decent cashflow, but bought the property for significantly lower than a Multifamily would sell for in Ottawa.We’ve been thinking about getting into the Ottawa market- ideally student rentals.

I just bought a 2 unit in East Austin if you'd like to talk about it.

I bought it at an 8.5 cap on trailing numbers which is pretty good.

@Joshua Herald One question to clarify before I give my two cents: do you currently own two homes, the one you live in and the one you bought through the REIA, or are those the same property?

The property I bought was a HUD property so I had a hard deadline to close in 45 days (otherwise I risked paying for each day I went over or possibly loosing the deal).
