I am confident I can get the property under contract low enough to make a healthy profit, but I have concerns about financing the deal, even with hard money.Here is a rough break down.ARV 200 - 210k - desirable neighborhood.

I'm very excited and feel confident about my future in it, but I'm not quire sure where to begin. 

It's best to assume positive intent and engage them as at face value.Yes, they might "learn how you operate" but what can they really take from one email or two?

I'm confident that I will get more calls and find a good deal soon. 

Your experience in the area and the success with your wealth through appreciation gets me even more excited to engaging with this community.

This doesn't give me much confidence, as I'm building out my education gameplan to start investing, and I think it will take me, liberally, until June 2016. 

In addition to this we teach you how to personally value properties so that we’re not moving forward until you have confidence that the deal you’re looking at is a good deal.

So later in life I became an auctioneer, that education and experience gave me the confidence to create my little C&R system.I would control a property with some alternative creative contract clauses with full disclosures and I would offer the property immediately for sale using a reserve public auction.

I'm not the type to let others step all over me but at the same time I want to be confident in my responses to his actions.

My main concern is that buyers wont like the idea of vinyl flooring, despite the fact I am confident they will look great.
