What's the best way to beat an all cash offer as is with no contingencies and a quick closing?  

Most people think you can no longer cash flow with real estate, but you definitely can down here. 

(other than having cash/equivalent, preliminary title report, and the appropriate deed ready to go 'on hand')The MOST difficult part of this will be getting the lender to provide you with the reinstatement figure to bring the loan current (I do this and take title sub-to because it's actually easier to get the lender to provide a reinstatement than a full payoff). 

Is there any Business Owner Occupied Element or is a cash flow investment3.

That way, if you find a deal like this, you can keep your cash capital-gains-free? 

Just my 2 cents...feel like HELOCs and other ways to cash in on crazy equity is resulting in a lot of these cash transactions though.

Learned what it takes to start an LLC, learning the basics and how to fill out contracts, finding cash buyers and etc.

Are you assuming sale of asset on the last year,cash out-refi, or continued cash-flow with some multiple?

Since then, I’ve paid myself back with the rental cash flow.

If you are cash, lets chat.
