Dealing with a private investor and they want a detailed rehab plan before making a proof of funds letter available....So, what is included in your rehab plans?

(I only tape to glass or metal.

REO purchases require you to have some cash (at least the EMD) and often a POF (proof of funds).

The husband should have some proof of automatic deposit.

Personally, I don't let any contractors step foot onto my property unless I have proof that they have both liability insurance (to cover any negligence on their part) and workmans comp insurance (to cover any injury on my property).

My offer was $55000, all cash the couple accepted it and then the real estate broker had to present it to the bank,Based on my prior experience I thought the bank would make a counter offer or reject my offer outright, Guess what the next day the broker called saying the bank wanted to see proof of funds they accepted the offer provided I could close before Dec 8th.I closed Dec 2nd I spent the last month painting it and refinishing the floors I have a great tenent ready to move in feb 1st at $750 per month .

If I have 100,000 I can turn that 100,000 into so much more than 115,000 in a years time.The other item is in many states where they start the interest rate high and bid it down you will be competing against institutional bidders whop will bid the rates down low.So tax liens and sales can work and you can even land a property occasionally but along with everything else is not a magic bullet.
