Welcome to the community brother, I've found that the more I can spend time on the site and hear all the encouraging stories, I become more and more motivated in doing deals.

Of course this meeting is also a qualification period where we make sure that the individual actually has money to invest, is motivated to buy, and is crystal clear on our process. 

Hi Helen, You never want to be a motivated buyer.

I have recently found a great property to put under contract (excellent), the owner is very motivated in getting the property off her hands, she has a buyer in mind who wants the property(her sister)  and even agreed to lower the offer I originally gave her (sounds like an easy sale right).

It's great motivation. 

How can I structure a deal that the seller is very motivated but owes $128, arv $150k, and needs $5k to move into assisted living?

Check out the forums under Starting Out, you'd get a lot of tips and motivation from investors who got over their fear.

Just like any rental, its your (or your PMs) job to sort them out.

@Pavs Doychev, Thank you for your post, very motivating to get rid of excuses and to take massive action!

It sounds like our best bet here if the insurance company doesn't cover it is to get on a payment plan of sorts with a contractor.
