I don't want to do a 1031 exchange, I don't want to a seller finance...what other creative financing options are there that will allow me to save on taxes.    

I need to find a creative attorney or title company to do the closing. 

We have lowered the price by $65k when we listed it 6 months ago and are about at our break even if we sold tomorrow.At this point, I'm searching for ways to get creative in sorting through any other options.

If I were you I would begin to continue educating myself (podcasts, forums, blogs and oh yeah podcast against) because that will give you the motivation to continue being creative to start investing.

Congrats on getting creative though @Mike Flora!  

@Darrel Maxam eventually you will have to get creative as you will run out of eligibility.

Study creative financing.

I once heard that the things that hold you back most in life are usually good things, like comfort, family, a short commute, etc.Let's get creative here...How about a duplex JV, where their moving into one side gives an investor the opportunity to buy in at 5% and have a permanent in-house management?

Maynard,I don't have any secret or creative technique to buying a lot of properties.

This is my first attempt into REI and appreciate advice you can offer for acquiring this multi-family property with creative financing.
