You can usually tell because if you click on the deed, it will be a "Certificate of Title" instead of a traditional deed.

the retainer is not a traditional fee.  

I am curious when buying and clearing a lot to develop on, is it there money to be made by just buying a modular home and putting it on the land or is it better to actually build a house the traditional way?

What happens when the tenant who has the utilities in their name splits 3) Leasing - lot of appointments and no shows vs. more traditional housing, harder to advertise on MLS.  

Then as soon as I can after rehab, I refinance with a traditional lender for close to my ARV ($300,000) , pay off my remaining $117,000 with the seller's note, then cash out my equity and pursue other properties while cash flowing the 6-plex.Am I crazy to think that a seller would even consider something like this?

This doesn't work with a traditional mortgage.They pay the $45K, you get $5K, and the seller gets $40K.Done deal. 

High-end backsplashes...glass mosaic, subway tiles, etc.Hand scraped hardwoods for traditional feel, real wood not engineered and definitely not laminate.  

And in places like Florida or Nevada, it is highly doubtful your traditional buyer is paying all-cash for a $200,000 or $300,000 home.

You may not have to quit your jobs to get access to the funds, however.Chris, as an added bonus the Solo 401k can offer both traditional and Roth in the same plan.

Given I've never seen a houseboat rental advertisement in my life I don't think, and I rarely talk about houseboats - so if this is just a coincidence, I'm buying a lottery ticket!!
