The idea when purchasing the house initially was to start putting my BAH (housing allowance) into my own equity vs someone else's.

Which are the best property websites that allow private home sellers to advertise a property for sale?

Jegan - unfortunately you have not provide enough information to allow an intelligent response.

Based on their responses, I can gauge how close they are to my MAO (maximum allowable offer) and how motivated they are.

Allow something for yourself to cover the public areas.

Note - If you are looking to invest the proceeds you could look into a 1031 exchange will defer all Federal taxes to a later date and allow you to purchase another property with the proceeds.The best thing to do in your situation is to do a little research and talk to an accountant.

Though - the main reason people use the BRRR Strategy is because it allows you to do a "no or low" money down transaction.

So, in other words, you want to go behind the bank's back...do you think, just on the surface, that this sounds like a good idea?

It's probably better to work on a 4-6 year timeline too which allows you to adjust after hopefully reaching your goals.

My personal view is as follows: I am not a professional, so I don't deserve to be paidI am learning new skills that will/have allowed me to better negotiate with professionalsIt was a great teaching opportunity with my kids.
