The whole point of creative financing is helping sellers find a solution to a problem by creating a win-win situation for everyone involved. 

Has anyone experienced this issue and has a solution for it?

What are the possible solutions we can bring to them to help them out of whatever situation they are going through?

The house is the result of the situation, not the cause.Then you create a solution.

Do you think it's sustainable?

I'm looking at a foreclosed property owned by a reverse mortgage company called "Reverse Mortgage Solutions, Inc." 

Did you find a solution?  

Kelley Clarke is an expert on that if you decide to go that route.You don't necessarily have to "buy out" all the investors who think they want a 1031, but rather find a solution to the problem they are trying to solve -- How to pay less tax.At BAM, we have been getting a "1031 Effect" through cost segregation which will offset other income in the "passive" bucket.

My proposed solution is to remove the cut of portions and replace them with the following configuration:Tee_fitting_end_B | narrow_nipple | narrow_to_wide_reducer | wide_nipple | wide_union | wide_nipple | elbow_A_endWill this work?

Education and help from a mentor can go a long to help you be successful but it wont be a magic solution that will give you 6-8 great deals in a year.
