The buyer met the seller and they pushed me out of the deal very sneakily.

I was researching and thinking maybe this is a good example of what seller financing could do for us?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The seller purchased this almost entirely vacant and highly distressed asset in cash in 2016 and has had X company handling the management and renovations since.

 27 are seller owned trailers 1 seller owned campers 2 lots rented 2 empty spaces

Seller has a property that caught fire and its not livable.

The seller actually LISTED the house after he signed with me.

Id also check out if the property you have in mind is USDA eligible, its zero down payment, there is a funding fee but that can be wrapped into the loan, and with seller paid closing cost you can be in a multifamily for nothing.

Hi, Tony,  I don't know the price range in your area, but my favorite strategy is to try to find an seller who owns their property free and  clear (i.e. no mortgage).

Very similar to off market properties that are sold...buyers typically have to pay their agents, as the sellers don't usually want to pay out a commission. 

But in NY, in our market, 1 out of about every 30 potential seller leads is a deal.
