Slightly different, but I used to have a money partner that provided all the cash, and I did everything else.

I rented out my condo (short term - midterm) to move in with him, and now he is ready to rent out his single family home (long term).  

I offer to purchase the home for a discount equal to the expected cost of PITI plus repairs/maintenance for the life expectancy of the homeowner, plus a margin for profit.I have the option to refinance the home to pull money out of it after purchase to finance other real estate deals.

Since Charter operates in my space, seller financed notes, I run into Charter students every now and then.The crux of their program is to teach you to find notes for them.

They think wholesalers are making too much money and stealing clients.It’s already illegal in Oklahoma, Illinois, Philadelphia.

Local municipalities and states have GIS data online that reveals much of how a property will be developed, even streams can be estimated (nothing like a photo of running water tho).

The question you should ask is how much money I will make if I invest $25K in this deal. 

Come talk about your worries and success stories about private money lending, as well as to share your experiences and ask questions!

If you can do a value add and BRRRR it, that really makes the most money.  

Personally, I would eat the money up front to get someone on schedule asap and work with either the bank or the seller for a credit at close.If there is roof damage, that would be an insurance claim on the current owner's policy.
