Everyone wants the easy, simple answer to how they get Foreclosed properties, but the truth is, it takes time, energy, research, networking, studying, money for advertising/gas/marketing materials, etc., and most importantly, persistence! 

I've met private lenders that actually do a lot of brokering of capital, so they will underwrite the deals, source the leads, connect the capital partner to a borrower, and there's none of their own money tied up in the deal - they collect origination points or point spread for their time and energy doing the underwriting.

This was very attractive to me because it's a very old property (1914), in good shape but with deferred maintenance, a past electrical fire, and some other issues that are relatively minor.I had stated I could offer an owner carry.

@Joey Gorombey I had a shed in the backyard I hooked up electricity to it.

Love your energy.

Lack of quality furnished rental options and lack of management fees can yield some quality and less energy intensive returns.
