May I propose an alternative theory?  

Acct Size will be ~200KAny tips on which SDIRA vendor is a good choice?

Alternatively, take a look from the ground with some binoculars. 

Some have paid with a money order or cash instead, but that was their choice...not something I've required.Lawn Care:  I take care of it, but then I live on the property also.Maintenance issues:  Same.Late Fees:  I have toyed with two ideas. 

If you are considering it for an alternative to a 401k there was also mention on one of the podcasts or blog posts of using HSA medical account contributions which can grow tax free for medical expenses later in life when these costs will be higher, downside might be that the companies you have them with might not offer many investment options so the return might not be as good as your options in a standard investment account even taking the taxes into consideration. 

I believe that you have a couple of choices.1) If you can get the property under contract at a discounted rate, you could wholesale it to another investor for a fee.2) You could talk with the vendor and see it they are willing to do a seller finance with a smaller down payment, using whatever you have left over to try and repair. or even talk with the vendor and see if they want to partner with you.3) find some one you trust who has what you are missing and partner up.4) pass this by, knowing that you will find another deal, and gear yourself up (fix credit/no money issues) with the goal to fix and flipsome basic ideas. you can search the site for more forums on what you need.Good luck!

However, it is a viable solution if you've no other choice - just be aware of the drawbacks...

The better oath would have been to ease in to the situation, offering assistance, and slowly becoming and inside, the natural choice as buyer.

If your software is "smart" enough it should tell you that you have duplicates and give you the choice. 

You have a choice, bail and try to get your money out or dump more money in to get it done.Don't mean this in a personal way, but you can read books for a year and you still won't have a clue.
