We will be moving in the next 6 months so I doubt I'll really engage with anyone here in Clarksville, TN.

I find this interesting, because most states do not look favorably on people motivated by profit to engage in multiple contract for deed transactions to avoid licensure as a lender.

All are effective but my budget is running low.

Transfer of funds and repayments takes effect.

By having someone consult you this does not guarantee any of the advice provided will lead to profit, I'm sure you have to sign a hefty liability waiver before engaging in such service.I recommend you stay on the forums, network, and learn.Happy Hunting!

Spend 30 minutes a day on Bigger Pockets by connecting with “colleagues,” perusing blogs and videos, and engaging with others on the forums: http://www.biggerpockets.com/meet 7.

Keep your eyes on the prize, which is reinstating in a timely and cost effective manner for your purposes.  

I only lend money now.. so I never hear about the 3 T's or any of that stuff anymore and it does not matter if you have PM you still need to engage them answer there e mails their cash calls  etc etc....and being very selective were my funds go and who they go to ( lots of experience at lending ) I mitigate my down side pretty well these days.. ( now in all fairness I got killed along with a lot of other lenders back in 07 and 08) so it was not all wine and roses.:) but now with the values reset and HML or private lenders being able to set their terms better I think the risk reward is far better than owning with much less work...  

Personally, I tend to think that we have enough other fundamentals going for us in this region (wine, tourism, proximity to bay area...) that it won't have a huge effect, but I'm curious what others think.

The properties I'm looking at are all very closely regulated by the city and there aren't a lot of random trailer parks around or anything to that effect.
