Somewhat vague, I understand, but looking to get pointed in the right direction....

Lots o learnin on BP, and the forums/podcasts can help you fine tune the directions you want to take in REI.  

It sounds like you don't want a rental - so you need to look at your options to sell...owner financing, conventional, etc.You could do an Executory contract as a means around the 180 day limit but would seek legal guidance as there are lots of disclosures and risks with that route.Also, I assume this is residential - the requirement does not apply to commercial or investor purchases.

At the moment these are the only strategies I know of that  can potentially allow me to generate quick funds so that I can get into other kinds of deals.I'm hoping other experienced investors can share experiences and insights to these concepts and guide me in the right direction.

Let us know which direction you're thinking after viewing them!

And J Scott weighed in by directing me to all the right questions to ask, and concepts I needed to understand. 

Ok.....Year one of flips is coming to an end (kinda of...) and it started great and it continues to move in the right direction.....Now comes the really fun part of the business.....Rentals....Just like when we started, we knew nothing about flips and now know enough to be dangerous....Would love to have some input on things we should know, ask, etc as we move into our first rental property....Working on making an offer on our first as we speak and here is what I know so far...Property asking price: 129kType: DuplexAlready have tenants and recently signed new lease agreementWhat are some of the items we should look into or better yet, not miss as we go thru this transition.

can provide some direct experience.  

I'd appreciate any information or direction to get this thing handled correctly.  

I have decided to buy a list and do a direct mail campaign.
