Sure, anyone can modify the note, reset payments and terms to better meet needs, what they might not do is know local investors who will buy the collateral and lease back, or allow a sale with cash to the seller or bring in an equity partner for a borrower taking an interest in the property, say 50% of equity (if there is any) and setting sales later on.

IF you're pitching it to an investor or flipper like myself the main thing is to know what I want and bring a deal that fits.

The Realtor noted that it would bring out the lunatic fringe, well, I'm joking.

- Bringing back an old post here, but my question would be this.

Due to time constraints, etc I decided to use an agent to bring qualified tenants.

What I am wondering is, would it be better to accept a 4% ROI and feel comfortable that I know what the HOA is up to, I approve, and that things are probably going to be good there as long as the national economy doesn't falter, or, is it wiser to sell the thing for a clear $160k after expenses and parlay that into two SFDs in a different part of town that could maybe bring in $2000 gross.

I got an ROTC scholarship out of High School and served for 4 years (while gaining valuable experience and great memories) in return for a full ride to college.

It also seems common sense to me that if you can bring in that buyer you've solved half of the sale...seller and buyer.I work with lots of buyer's in this capacity, and the only downside to this is that it takes time and follow up systems.

I bought my first house when I was 30 and I enjoyed bringing it back to life and flipping it 1 year later.

Yes I am a noob to real estate investing, that may not bring much to the table.
