I need to come up with a good strategy for tying up this property while managing holding costs & risk (both the risk that market shifts drastically and the risk that I lose the seller)CONTEXT: I'm an investor in Bergen County, NJ - my direct mail turned up an owner who plans to move out of state at the end of the school year (she's a teacher retiring).

Buy, fix and hold it for cash flow, which won't be a lot but i should be able to get all my investment back within a year since rent in Alaska is crazy high.4.

Its been 3 months now and I cannot get a hold of them to discuss a payoff. 

I have just completed my first Fix & Hold single family rental (BRRR strategy) and closed on my second property, which I will renovate this fall and sell. 

I have capital and looking to diversify into real estate via flipping and or holding, among other avenues.

I'll hold my opinion back on this as I need another professional to brainstorm this.No money down as the future buyer will put this down.500/month netfuture sell of 260k  (3yrs). 

This allows you to evaluate and add contingency costs so you have room for anything that may happen like added costs, length of costs (holding costs).  

She gave me a lecture on how to hold a courteous and respectful conversation and warned me that if I did not be quiet and let her talk she would hang up on me and I would have to call back and talk to someone else.

I have my sites set on acquiring 100 units by the time I am 40 (8 1/2 years to go and 94 units to go)...I am looking to connect with someone who also has a similar goal of buying and holding on a large scale like me.

But what I'm primarily interested in is buy and hold cash flowing properties.
