It is a passion to creative homes that people want to live in and raise their families. 

Lenders are getting creative in the marketing of their product because there is so much competition in today's real estate market among lenders ( a good thing for investors ) but the old saying is applicable "if it sounds too good to be true it probably is". 

In preparation I've been blasting the bigger pockets podcast constantly for a few months, reading the books you all evangelize, and am studying to become an Agent by the end of the year. 

Some people don't get written approval - I do)- you can be as creative as you want with the terms The cons are: - you don't own the property so it can make it a little more complicated to sell - sellers who aren't familiar with it might shy away

There is a common and very bad theme that title agents themselves can create and prepare security instruments and notes and they should not by any means.  

Instead, put the corner off to the side about 1/3rd of the way in.Try to include a window in every shot.Get creative with your perspective.

You'll need to keep track of every expense (including things like vehicle expenses, interest, lawyers, accountants, permits, tax preparation, LLC organization fees etc.) and if applicable, keep track of expenses relating to different projects separately.

Easier said than done, but not hard if you have skills, relationships, and history.There are tons of ways to do everything, and financing real estate can be as creative as you can think.

Getting $30-70k per flip might work for big investor/flipper teams in the expensive markets, but here in flyover country, it just ain't so.Be prepared to do a ton of work, lots of hours, and be prepared to NOT BUY THAT HOUSE that you want, but the numbers don't work.  

If anyone know of resources I can look into for creative financing I would like to hear about them.
