I want my kids to see money and the world differently that I did growing up.

In this instance, Either the purchase price will have to be lowered or the buyer and seller must work out another arrangement for the 15K balance.

I think today if the parties are unrealated you might have a problem unless it's a non-owner occupied purchase.As J. mentioned it's highly unlikely IMO that they will change buyer after submitted, that would indicate to me that the buyer doesn't have their ducks in a row as well and might consider file 13.As to the QCD, this was the way to do it in the past but I believe today (as things change in RE) that there are some areas that have title issues with the QCD being used except in limited and more customary instances, like between husband and wife from a divorce.The problem seems to be that it weakens the chain of title as to "only that interest" being conveyed.

Inside a company all that is included in your operating agreement or in a loan relationship you have to simply pay them off to get a satisfaction and remove their lien.The best deal for you, is the one which involves the lesser amount of your assets being pledged and maintains your autonomy to continue to grow and operate your business in a manner which attracted them to you in the first place.

You're money did a bit of the work, but most of the profit was probably through not charging for your labor.Year 2, you gained more knowledge in the industry and got a raise on your time and earned a good ROI.At the end of year 3, the amount you can earn on your labor stops growing so quickly, so it is very hard to double 500k.

I also like books like think and grow rich.

I agree that in some instances stucco does make homes look more modern.

I am all for innovative strategies, especially if it helps grow and scale profits.

For instance if you allow early period redemption's in a pro-rata fund, the liquidation of an investment may have consequences of the return for other investors.

Right now I plan on growing my business with subject to, lease options, & seller financing deals.
