Andrew Troup Reduce offer after inspection?
28 February 2011 | 21 replies
You have an inspection contingency and when you receive the inspection report, you should include a repair estimate along with the submission of your counter offer.It is exactly the same as a traditional sale, but the lender, in the case of a short sale, can reject your counter-offer.Of course, the listing agent may not want to go through the extra steps that are necessary and you may have to wait additional time for review, but the fact is many lenders will allow for necessary repairs.However, keep in mind, if your already buying the house at a discount, your less likely to get concessions from the lender.

Gary B. Why did you choose REI over other business plans?
27 May 2012 | 10 replies
I still wonder if this is the best way to focus my time and energy or could I be more successful in another "traditional" type of business.When you think $100 - $300 a door a month, it doesn't sound like much money on one hand, but on the other hand you have a steady monthly cash flow, hopefully an appreciating asset, tax benefits, etc...I guess my question is, for the people that fully committed themselves to investing in real estate, what made you choose this path over another?

My plan is to build a solid foundation of cash flowing properties as a safety net supplemented by an occasional 1031 flip to supercharge my equity (I'd rather not take the big tax bite from traditional short term flipping).
