I am not here to win a popularity contest.

However, I don't have a credit card, and thus no credit score.

He bought the house and furnishings with a credit card. 

I would just do a gift card like a Visa card or something they can spend anywhere.

I have found success in the small wins that I have as a house hacker, but I am hoping to expand within the next year.

Emotions come into play, sellers want to feel like they are winning...let em feel that way and close.

Focus on solving your clients problems, not your company name, logo, business card, stationary, etc.

He might win, but it won’t be cheap.

So if you’re fortunate enough to win a tax deed auction, but the home is filled with original owners personal property, if you can’t get a hold of them or they do not respond what do you do with all that personal property that does not belong to you?

The second option is seller financing with a higher offer but I control the terms.I am hoping that he shifts his focus to choosing between the 2 offers and we close on a deal because it's a win-win for both parties!
