I have $10,000 to contribute but would look to do all the property management etc.

An S-Corp can make membership contributions and gain the tax incentives as Mr.

What contributed to your success of failure?

Thanks for contributing.

The quick and easy would be to determine the lot value and offer that  without contributing any value to the structure.

I find this extremely surprising that an investor would be willing to contribute all the way up to 100% of the financing.

I imagine because of the restrictions on investors' maximum contributions: If either the investor's annual income or net worth is less than $100,000, then they can only invest the greater of $2,000 or 5% of their annual income or net worth (whichever is less) on an annual basis in crowdfunding investments.

There are times when a seller is trying to avoid commissions, agents and other cost - and that's OK if seller is for real.The seal bid methods have certain rules to success -expose the property as much as possible - signage - newspapers- internet -Have contract and terms at the ready for those interested to review them befroe bidding.Comps and pictures on a tri-fold stand should be present for all interested parties to view.Hold several open houses - lots of advertising.Agree to cooperate with real estate agents - they often will inform their clients to bid.Check the terms - as is, all cash, will take financing contingencies - seller agrees to -(help with settlement costs, leave the car and the furniture, contribute $5,000 to buyer, guarantee  appliances and furnace and roof for X years ----etc) We call this Contract Candy.Don't be shy - ask seler to contribute something if you are the high bidder - ask before bidding.Observe your competition if you canTalk to neighbors - there are times when the neighbor will tell you all about the house and problems the seller has had in the past.Have friends and paid agents assist you and look at the house and to listen for clues of motivation.Get all the information about everything you can....Why do you think the real reason the seller wants out - has he done this before or is just a creative seller?

If anyone could contribute to this goal, would be higly apreciated.
