I've got recorded calls I post for my members demonstrating how I've done it in as little as 25 minutes with one phone call to then create instant cash via down payments of no less than $10k, cash flow, and back end profit when the buyer refinances and the total cost of the deal is $10 for good and valuable consideration so I have a legal and binding contract, 25 minutes to several hours on the phone negotiating the deal with the seller and the monthly cost of Docusign or Rightsignature so I can get the docs signed electronically because I do these deals all over the U.S. and never see any home or meet anyone. 

In the motel example, the investor is a liquid multimillionaire cash investor but he didn't know that Dodd-Frank now governed the private mortgages he's been writing and didn't know we could cost segregate the motel/restaurant for instant increases in cash flow. 

This one is coming with 20% instant equity and needs "nothing" to rent out in the heart of grandview it's already a bit overdone for the area - granite, stainless, hardwoods, outbuilding) - I think this one will rent as soon as I take possession and market it.On the financing side, I took my relationship with portfolio lender a step further and moved some security assets I've been holding a long time (income oriented things like bond ETFs) for free to their asset management division, which allowed them to give me a line of credit with those as collateral at 3.5% "interest only".  

If we decide to move there someday, we will instantly save 10% in state income tax.The local economy is stable and growing.

All of the greats started at a young age, but became instant success later.  

Or, you could both have a Chase account or a Capital One account, both allow free instant transfers between accounts held there by different people.

Instant cash flow. 

I'm totally torn between slowly building up a healthy chunk of liquid cash (for investing, emergencies, whatever) or gaining instant equity (and lots of it).

I'll still do flips in NOVA because if you can find a distressed (vacant) property in the right area there is instant appreciation.  

Instant gratification plays big in our society.
