I have seen many agents try to scare the buyer off from a much discounted offer.

Our offer was ALL CASH, 2 week closing, no contingencies, no inspections, STEEP DISCOUNT.

Make sure there is sufficient discount built in and then assign the contract to another investor.

It's been on the market way too long, the sellers are not motivated, and you're buying at only a 15% discount.

As I stood, ankle deep in pigeon feces, I thought, "Yes, landlording is glamorous."

I used a builder discount to buy them no money down.Despite that, if I knew then what I know now, I would run from them.

Even selling it at a discount through what the IRS calls a "Bargain Sale."

Just looking at homes and rentals in the Niceville area (about 20 minutes north of Destin), you can find townhomes and whatnot for a significant discount compared to Destin.

So, my total increase in income is $3,200 per month from just the rentals I added this year.Now, consider that I bought all of these properties at a BIG discount to retail.

For comps I just ask one of my friendly local Realtors to lunch and ask her to bring all SALES (and pending sales) records for COMPARABLE neighborhoods, with the last 3 MONTHS.And in a declining market I discount the ones that are older than a month.all cash
