All that said, you can certainly play with the structure a bit to attract investors.

There’s no question, when it comes to the real estate investment business, private and hard money lenders are important. Many of the biggest hard money lenders who lent heavily before the crash, are now out of busines...

Keywords play a good part in this, but equally important is the placement and "mark up" of those keywords.

It could be liget and it could well be a sham, and probably from the listing agent playing games, caal the on it, stick to your price and move on, make them shoe any option or take them down.

I have to play with the numbers based on the history of reo/ss closings in the neighborhood and how many are currently listed, blah, blah blah.Its not rocket science, just math.

However interest rates are so low and as I am toying with 15 year mortgages a big chunk of my mortgage payments would be paying down principal from the start, and it seems like this should play some effect when considering returns.

Just really do a gut check and once you have decided go after it with much gusto or play it safe and conservative.

Why would you have a partner who doesn't have any skin in the game?

And; how does that come into play?

From what I've read on here the best play is to buy low ($2-3k per mobile home), rent ready rehab and sell to make $2-3k margin.
