I was told that you could either structure the deal thru a land trust or do a double closing, which do you suggest is the better route.. and if you suggest the land trust, how is the trust actually set up..or structured for the assignement

Be consistent in the marketing/looking that you are doing, and then add on additional methods as you go.

you can mix it up once you get going..all of the investing methods have their strong points and weak points.. however wholesaling by far is less risk then the others..

Another method may be to target a price/sqft in a given, specific market.  

All Cash, I understand that your method is solid and sound, but I am just not sure how practical it is for the majority of newbie investors.Mine is just another perspective.

I'm working with a very motived seller and I am will to be very creative in structuring the deal.

I would like to put in a graduated purchase price depending on how long it takes to exercise but he's not going for that.(2) Sub-market monthly rent (low monthly is very important to him).Any thoughts on how to structure while meeting both of our goals?

Your current perspective will either cripple your success or it will propel it.Just make sure that you have your greatest asset (YOU and YOUR MIND) working for you and not against you.To get back to your original question, I think that most investment strategies will still work in any market but you have to properly structure your numbers with a full understanding of what your market is doing.
