Take the big win and reinvest.

Willing to take a cheaper deal and refi out of the ARM later and hoping they win the bet and the rates are lower. 

Here in Wisconsin, most counties require 10% down in cash or cashiers check right after you win the auction.

Guaranteeed.If you really want this house, the only realistic route to success is:1) Move someplace cheaper2) Save3) Increase your income4) Buy the house at full market value when you can actually afford itShort of that, I suppose you could always win the lottery or just put it on a credit card.

Quote from @Kristofer Mendoza: I buy model leasebacks at every opportunity and it has proven a lucrative strategy for meUsually how should the offer be to win a bid for such scenarios?

Honestly, we are quite lenient with our deposits (probably ought to be more strict), but this stratergy seems like a win-win in many cases.

Making my inventory turn take 3 times as long in order to make it 25% more profitable is not a winning strategy Frankly I don't let taxes worry me much.

My thought was if someone who had the more capital than I was able to buy it, it would be a win win.

Also, on entering into win-win arrangements have you seen any agreements that will stagger commission payments over time so that bird-dogs and wholesalers have a vested interested in not selling on a dud or making a fast buck.

So for someone with that goal, can you give me an example of how your most powerful advantages would apply and win out over the paid off homes?
