I worked with two amazing Brokers (Travis and Patrick from Savvy Ent.) and an outstanding loan officer (Isaiah from Cornerstone Mortgage) who really helped pave the way.

I’m a mortgage broker and investor about 45 mins south of Cleveland, happy to connect!  

MLS, Zillow, Cold Calling/lead generating, Realtors, Mail Marketing, SEO/Online marketing...If you are going direct-to-owner (aka sourcing your own deals), you'll have the most and best options. 

With a locked-in low mortgage rate of 3.2%, and about $100k in equity after expenses, I'm contemplating my next move.

Sunny Isles is still competitive down here, but there's more condo inventory online now than before so that should help you for sure! 

The only thing I’m able to find about buying pre-forclosures online is all about “subject to” so thank you for sending somthing other then that.

They owe about $150k on the property and pay about $1500 for the mortgage.  

They may even have a website that shows zoning, etc. you can read minutes online too and see what attorneys represent developers consistently 

Can anyone give me some worst case scenarios besides me owing the $ back if it does not close for some reason AND if there is a way to protect myself in the purchase agreement from any worst case scenarios….There is no mortgage or realtors involved- only real estate attorneys.

I am currently looking online to learn how to move forward there.
