Hello BP,I am starting to analyze numerous amounts of deals in my spare time to get the feel for it.  

I had to call numerous times within the next few days to even get a hold of this paralegal or secretary, not sure what she is, handling my closing to get me some answers.

.- other than reducing seller's taxable income, what are other reasons why this option might be attractive.- what kind of rates have you negotiated.Share your story!

I've been researching sandwich lease options for a little while now and they're pretty attractive, what with the multiple profit centers and whatnot.However, what I can't seem to find is details on what seller situations and/or properties lend themselves well to this particular strategy.

After numerous hours of learning through podcasts, articles, forum discussions and webinars later I found some good deals.

I've done some extensive top-down research on attractive cities for single-family or small multi-family (duplex, triplex) buy & hold rentals and Philadelphia has come out on top.I'm looking to understand what would be a reasonable gross cap-rate to expect when investing in Philadelphia given a budget of $150K - $200K.

That way you can attract wholesalers to sell their deals to you first.Sean

I've received numerous referrals to Creative Stone Countertops in Pawtucket, RI

Are there suburbs that are attractive? 

Not sure if this will be attractive to a lender now that my savings are much lower and my credit card debt is higher.
