Hello,I purchased a 5Br/4.5BA townhome in the Windsor at Westside community in Kissimmee, FL last year.

I also lived in downtown Watertown over 20 years ago.

Talked to the seller and he mentioned he wouldn’t mind doing a 3 year ballon payment.

This negative position can consume years of cash flow to recover.

We entered into a partnership to purchase a mobile home for $105,000 with an owner finance deal over 3 years.

A side note is if in person events interest you - the BiggerPockets conference this year, BPCon 2024, is October 6-8th and is a HUGE opportunity to meet folks, Cody Sanchez the keynote speaker is speaking on buying businesses and "boring" investments like storage units, laundromats, etc and it might be a great place for you to find some likeminded folks https://biggerpockets.getregistered.net/conference-2024/agen...Thirdly, if you're specifically looking for a mentorship program have you checked out some of the reviews and questions on the Guru, Book, and Course Review forum?

Here’s the reality; the once every two or three or four years a GREAT deal falls in my lap, I (fortunately) have enough capital in reserve to purchase the property immediately for cash.

I burnt through a number of agents when I started out ten years ago and I was shocked by how little they understood about investing.

Once you get to ten years in, your life is going to look very, very different than what it does today.

Cost could change but the bigger issue is making sure the usage is still eligible for the type of policy you have.As an example, at the time of application, a company might ask are all lease agreements for one year or longer.
