I have very good credit and only a small amount of consumer debt (less than 10k).

So I opted for repair.   

Time consuming, but not difficult.

I totally understand ,I had a similar predicament and after 3 strs, the 4th one - I am going the commercial route.. if you think the purchase has strong cash flow.. you should definitely opt the LLC route...

I love that you repeated the words of Brandon and David because I often forget those valuable pieces of information when I am trying to consume as much as possible.

Hello BP, first time poster here, and long time podcast consumer.

If I opt for a nonrecourse loan I want to be sure that it really is nonrecourse and my downside and personal assets are protected especially if I am giving up a lower interest rate and taking on greater costs for this loan type, LLCs etc.

At which point - as you mentioned - I may want to lean more towards a few wholesaling deals because my time won't be consumed or restricted (for lack of better words) by my full-time job.

I suspect the insurance companies are more opt to consider you.Good luckSam Shueh

Everybody has to play the game by the rules.Doing a short sale deal like yours is time consuming, but not difficult.
