Whatever they need to be motivated, provide it.

If you are not motivated by CASH, then owner finance and it and immediately fix the cash flow issue.

Likewise you could have a motivated seller selling a fully occupied Class A asset at 7 CAP. 

Bottom line is you have to find motivated sellers AND cash buyers to have staying power in the business. 

#keepitup.A) Motivation Do not stop.

I am looking to become financially free some day and I am motivated to do so.

Purchase price: $40,000 Sale price: $55,000 This was a wholesale deal we recently completed to help a motivated seller who was looking to unload his existing property which was in need of renovation and buy a new home.

Thanks again for the post, it is very motivating for Newbies!!

The seller is motivated due to needing cash to build a new commercial building for his new business.This seems to be a good price in our area ($50,000/unit) but how do I really get a good estimate on property value as a whole in making a good decision on this deal?

With the profit from my first deal, I plan to get licensed.I'd never considered being an agent before, but through talking with so many motivated sellers willing to sell for decent discounts (just not a wholesale deal discount), I can see how I'm leaving money on the table by not being able to list and market them myself.I'm willing to bet that I could make more as a seller's agent than as a wholesaler.
