Once you get a response from someone, you can be more specific and let them know that you have a network of buyers and one of them will actually be the end buyer.You would need to negotiate a low enough price with the owner so that  you can get your fee and still sell it at an attractive price to investors.

Hi BP,I am interested in buying a Short Sale home my first investment property, that being said what are some of the key things to look for in getting into a short sale deal.

I also found the Homestyle® loan which is very similar. from what I understand, the homestyle® loan gives a bit more flexibility of the renovation, requires slightly higher down payment (at 5% down, this still makes for a much more affordable first buy), and allows you to end your PMI after 22% equity, which seems very attractive to me. 

I quickly learned the value of the answer "I do not know the answer to that, but I can get it to you shortly".  

Airbnb in the high season, short term corporate rentals in the low season. 

I've found that when my team and I work like we have 9 to 5's we get way more done in such a short time.

If that is what you are dealing with, short of talking to the neighbors that have been in the area for years and seem to know everybody elses business, I'm not sure how you would go about comping it out.  

Doesn’t sound like it....a short sale at best.

I am waiting to hear back from my attorney, but I would like to know the opinion of some of the seasoned investors on this site.Long story short, this home owner inherited the house that he wants to sell.

Now , if I do take the cash now , ill be hit with short term Capital gains & if I BRRR it I wont. what do you think of that?
