Nothing but forum reading and podcast listening has been happening in my world since my wife sent me the Hyatt podcast last week.

After really listening to the BP podcasts and reading these forums, I am learning and identifying all of these different strategies.

Keep reading, listening to podcasts and going to meet ups.

Gonna go listen to Show #243 now (the marketer in me loves that you put it in your signature!) 

As a landlord and property manager, I've taken numerous calls from people who needed a place to rent ASAP because their landlord sold the house they were in out from under them.

Bottom line - All hype, bs, misinterpretation, opinion bias, etc aside, sellers willing “owner finance” the sale of their property for one reason - and one reason only: They PERCEIVE that they are getting a higher price for their property by owner financing than by a cash (cash to them) sale.The “perceive” part is why buyers can sometimes structure terms ridiculously one sided in their favor - because some sellers are so focused on PRICE they become oblivious to anything else.It’s why I and numerous others have been able to structure 20 year owner financing loans at ZERO interest; why sellers have accepted “substitution of collateral” that gave them a lien on recreational land I had rather than their own income producing property; why sellers accept second position liens and allow buyers to obtain new first mortgages ahead of theirs (subordination), and why sellers always accept mortgages without my personal guarantee.I myself sell properties and provide owner financing to obtain a higher price.

Listen to the people who tell you to have ample liquidity.

Some aren't even willing to listen.

But when it comes to rankings, I've heard numerous people say once they mastered Airbnb and applied the same principles to VRBO their rankings came up. 

I am an agent in the Iowa City area, however, I have worked numerous times with Regen Johnson at Ruhl&Ruhl.
