Commuting to Redmond from Seattle is a pain in the ***, definitely look for alternatives.

I'm looking at a property that is FSBO so when putting together an offer I was assuming the seller would be saving ~6% on realtor fees by selling to me versus his alternative of listing it with an agent.

@Everett Marshall Did you end up having any success with that technique?

I know this deal won't make or break me, so I'm trying to keep it in perspective.Just wondering if there were techniques out there to gain a little leverage for someone to sign a contract?

I can't see tossing remains as an alternative at all...that's just me. 

That is because he seems to have compiled the best techniques and info from all the courses he bought over the past 10yrs and revamped them for an easy and simple automated success system.

Personally, I prefer land trusts, however, tax reporting and obtaining a tax id for a short term project would send me looking for alternatives. 

I would also use different marketing techniques to find sellers - letters, postcards etc.

Specifically, I am looking for contacts/information/help in the following areas:- improving my lead sourcing for small to medium sized apartments- learning more about alternative financing / private lending- identifying other out of state markets to invest inAny help would be appreciated. thanks.

If anyone has a cheaper / easier alternative to HM then of course they should use that.
