A private money lender approached us on Facebook and is willing to fund the full Gap.

I realized the power of putting my dollars to work so I decided to look for private money as I am willing to pay up to 7% on a $25k loan. 

I am 18 years old so I have absolutely no credit or money but I can get the downpayment from a private money source. 

I am connected to a vast resource of passive and high end private serious investors. 

Should I 1. seek out a private investor, 2. ask Deutsche Bank for "seller financing (although they're a bank) or 3. find out if maybe another REI owns it and is interested in doing a lease option or seller financing?

I have and atty looking at this right now.IRS wants >6000 for private ruling letter

Did you use any creative financing (private lender, seller financing/carry back, etc)?

In reality, most things on the MLS come in close to retail - even in a trashed state - because, well, people are buying them.Your best course of action in many areas now is private marketing where you can maybe catch someone at the front end of a distressed situation that wants to get out NOW, and you can likely negotiate closer to 56-70% of After-Repair-Value (ARV).
