The HELOC would likely be more efficient for securing the acquisition as it would be considered 'cash.' 

@Eric Justice seller financing is not really a way to avoid having cash to close on a property.

I am looking to pay cash on distressed properties and to do the BRRRR method.I have a team in place but would be very interested in connecting with fellow investors, contractors, lenders, pretty much anyone who touches Birmingham real estate.Thanks so much, John

As long as it will pass an appraisal and not be "Subject to" major issues you can get a renovation or personal loan for work.Unless you are cash fluid and can add some cash back into the property and then pull back out on the ARV refinance.

Its a limited doc program  my suggestion is to close the land cash and refinance into multiple loan options and negotiate with at least 5 lenders and talk about terms. you may not even be qualified.

I purchased the home from an auction.Talk to a local real estate attorney to go over options (eviction, cash for keys, etc) 

Can I take Curbio a proposal use that to market to an investor to purchase the home and how easy would it be to I guess “transfer” all the work we started with the proposal to the current home owner over to the cash buyer?

It is a little bit out of my niche so my question is what is the best way to get in contact with the homeowner of a distressed property to make a cash offer?

In 10 years, when you have a nice portfolio of homes and they're cash flowing nice chunks of money, you'll appreciate the amount of time, energy and effort you put into your business and will get to enjoy the fruits of your labor.When I first went to the cpa I've been using for the last 5 or 6 years and explained what I was doing, he said, he's heard it before.

How could somebody smoke through that much cash that fast.
