It can be a bear sometimes if there is sediment built up in the bottom and clogging the drain valve.

Also I will be a first time buyer if that holds any bearing to anyone.Well that’s about it for now, a little long I know but I thought I would try to include as much I as I could.

No financial emergency.OK we have a home in the Chicago area that after having on the market for a bit, we found a solid tenent to lease the property with option to buy at $1150000.They will have gone through 18 months of on-time payments of 3950 per month plus $500 earnest accrual.Now they are looking to try to buy the house.

I have quite a few where a sub-to isn't feasible because of the payment being higher than rent (no go with negative cash flow) but I can lease it from the seller and they can bear the burden of negative cash flow (has to be reasonable so they don't experience financial distress).

I would not recommend that you market to Tenants with Lions, Tigers, and Bears.

I'm relatively new to the real estate investing arena so please bear with me.

Here's a sampling of the email I got: :roll: One person answered my question, all the others criticized or brought up things that had no bearing on the question.

Chicago area home.

You need to know who the negotiator is and get updates from them at a minimum weekly.The approaching foreclosure date will nor usually have any bearing on the speed of the short sale.

(Note some states like CO and CA make assigning SF agreements hard).My big point here is:Unless the seller wants OUT, really motivated, then creative financing is a bear to negotiate.If you want your DREAM HOME, no repairs, consider doing this:Sign on telephone pole, Fri Afternoon-****Can't Sell Your Home?
