I'm very interested in this buying method and would love to pick someone's brain on this topic.

You lose 6 months time of cash availability (perhaps 4.5 months since it does take time to get the refinance) where you may have been able to buy 2 or 3 more properties in that same 6 month time frame using my method rather than buying with cash.With my method I pay no lending costs with my first purchase since I use loan documents already created by an attorney for another loan for which I participated. 

I only say this because as you explore this sites resources you'll come across conversations about people having problems with some wholesalers and will probably hear about it in the REI community in your area.

Are there any creative investing methods that could be utilized in this?

Also explore private money (friends and family loans) and credit union financing.  

@Josh Braun, I like your category method.  

I've heard of the BRRR method.

I've got about 25% to put down, the numbers look pretty good (just over 2% rule) just wanted to explore some other optionsThanks !

My wife and I are using the BRRRR method successfully with a pace of 1 house per month give or take for the past year.

I get out on my motorcycle often, explore the woods, mountains, ocean and love to snowboard, mt. bike, and race go karts.Any direction down the right path would be appreciated and I hope to be able to share what I am learning along the way and pay it forward.
