Instead what usually happens is the owner pays for it upfront and then collects what they can over time until paid off.That is if as already mentioned an owner did not already account for it with so much reserves per sq ft while owning to properly maintain the asset to a high standard.When buying a retail center the first question I ask is about roof and parking lot because they tend to be the most expensive costs.

Curious if anyone has used the software?

I was hoping to get some answers on some great RE resource websites as well as software you all use.I've done research on a few, just would like to hear some opinions from people using them daily.

In hot markets realtors have to incentive to sell low for cash even on highly distressed assets. 

I'll assume that you have assets, since a down payment would be required, so a small bank might base their loan on your personal profile, assets included. 

I just went to tax lien seminar and they said if I pay the $597 I get 3 day class plus free software.

I would do a combination of stocks/bonds, notes and owning large assets like apartments, probably through syndications.

And do the leg work with some banks/credit unions/finance options to see what it would really take to get into the asset you want.

They all said it was the smart decision to protect my assets.

If you would like, we could go in on the software together.
