Not trying to be a jerk here but from reading your post, you have a financial motivation, not a altruistic one.

You are essentially providing some motivation for the borrower to sign the DIL docs and leave the property in a timely manner and in good condition and send/leave you the keys. 

Another way to do it would be to find a motivated seller and purchase below market value. 

Out of 45 candidates, one of two may be motivated, however your criteria is based in what YOU think, not what the owner wants to do, necessarily. 

But if they are motivated they will respond I would imagine.

I look for potential motivators.  

It depends on the sellers motivation and financial goals.The tenants need to show the benefits to the owner and that they are sincere buyers to beIf the owner is a buy and hold investor, it is toughA long term 5 year option might be a win win

My humble opinion after being on BP a bit and reading a lot of material:If you have1) Good common sense.2) The ability to read and absorb material.3) Are self motivated.4) Have decent math skills.Then you don't need a guru or class or best techniques training.
