Always ask if there is any way you can help the folks you're speaking with (whether via referral or otherwise). 

Use that equity via a HELOC to purchase and/or purchase & rehab good property candidates (BRRRR method), and learn about hard money and private money loans to buy distressed properties.  

If I buy a duplex  via FHA loan that cashflows I will be on the road to financial freedom but, in a living situation I would not want to be in temporarily. 

hi BP members,I am looking to sell my personal house via Rent to own route.

Seems to be so basic but lacking in an alarming number of people:Show up on time, or call if you are running late.Answer your phone.If I try to contact you via phone or email, I expect a response within 24 hours barring an emergency.Pick up/clean up after yourself and make sure the subs do too.Drives me crazy to see cigarette stubs all over the place.

My concern is not at the surface of the bill that they are focused on - selling the rights to a contract via equitable interest.  

Why would a homeowner allow for the property to go to foreclosure when they can simply put it on the market via an agent or a broker and get multiple offers? 

@Carrie ReymentI recently had the issue of thousands of leads/lists and trying to organize them all via excel. 

It is a criminal issue, and I would report it to the police, and if it was via USPS to a postal inspector.

If you start off by offering them full price via a lease option/Sub2/seller financing, you'll never know what they would've actually sold the house for.
