I see that you posted some definitions of "Legal" and "ethics".. that doesn't really cut it for me.

I have pre-approval to do 4-5 of the 50,000 deals that meet MikeOH's 50% rule but it isn't much good to have the funds available if the lenders will not finance.Most bank-owned properties I have found, the REO officers are cutting prices and willing to deal, but here in Alabama, the one year right of redemption is holding up my financing.Any ideas?

If not it is simply considered a loss!

I have never specifically used options to tie up real estate, but have traded stock options and thought I would throw in my .02 cents on risk.Any option is simply a contract between two parties where one party pays a monetary amount up front (premium) for the right, but not the obligation, to purchase some asset at a set price over a specified time frame.

In contrast, a quitclaim deed simply means the grantor transfers all rights he or she may have in the property, assuming they have any at all.

Have a cheap mirror cut to size and place in the back then place your bottle holders inside.

I had a repair guy stop by the other day and basically he told me sheis making a mess of the place and she doesn't have the gas cut on.She is an inherited tenant from the previous owner and I saw her once in person after the sale.

I typed in the above post title and found some realtor in Cleveland that cut and pasted my entire article word for word with NO reference to me.

As Jim said, it is pretty cut and dry.

I do not want to simply become a statistic, I want to learn from this experience (as painful and embarrassing as it may be).
