The method you discussed is definitely one of my options.

With a large enough down payment, you may be able to find something that works if the property is something you can afford.You can look into seller financing or getting a co-signer as alternative methods to getting a loan.

Did you put a contingency on the sale of your property that you find something to trade into?

I would suggest getting approved for the refinance first before you attempt this purchase method so that you don't have an issue with the financing, especially if you consider getting a hard money loan, the private lender will want to see your pre-approval letter so they know you will not get stuck. 

The BRRRR method there is a bit tough- even "fixer uppers" are priced just about as competitively as turn key homes and I'm sure construction costs to rehab are sky high.

Ive used this method and it works!  

NFT's are in their infancy, but I believe will become the de-facto method to securing ownership for many assets (not just digital) in the future.

That has been my Buy and Hold Money and I traded Stocks and Options on Stocks and now Futures online for my Daily Cash Flow.

Flipping is more than likely will be considered trade or business.2) Rentals: For this purpose, rentals are not considered trade or business, so initial inventory costs cannot be deducted as travel expenses.

He's a much older gentlemen and obviously likes to do things as they were done back in the day but should I suggest a normal closing or is this method ok?
