We've made several offers on larger properties (40+ doors) but always lost.

@Tyler Case - You could offer someone a promissory note or a debt play, e.g. someone brings the downpayment and renovation costs and you pay them a flat 10-12% interest on their money with the plan to refinance their funds out down the road.

My question:Has anybody here had a bank cancel a foreclosure sale that has taken place, to then go with another offer from an on market property?  

So my question is do I offer them a renewal without raising rents?

There are a few companies offering this

I am thinking I could offer a lease option 10% down, plus 3% option fee, and structure the deal so I am cashflowing $3k positive per month.What would you think of a deal like this?

ive got a potential seller with an existing mortgage left over of 190k an the home arv is abt 310k how would i go about my offer price formula with the existing mortgage? 

If you are just getting started in multifamily real estate investing (perhaps making the jump from SFR – single family rentals – or flipping) – make sure you are well prepared if you jump “up the ladder” too quickly – the world of 2-10 unit multifamily investing can offer a great “bridge” between SFR and Multifamily for any budding real estate investor.

For example, a home equity line of credit (HELOC) might offer a more flexible solution to fund the repair without the commitment of a second mortgage.

We have a older TOH park and getting big offers from hotel chains to buy, close and redevelop.
