What they ALL fail to mention or specify is that not ALL short sale transactions are fraudulent, not all investors are crooks and of those that are, they are a small minority in which the guilty party failed to properly disclose and had full intent at the start.If you as an investor negotiate to buy a property for under market value and disclose to the short sale lender your intent to immediately re-sell for a profit, then no fraud occured and no laws were broken.

That is a horrible fee.I lend both Hard Money and Transactional , from within my SelfDirected IRA and outside also.Although it was my intention to use my IRA more I have found that on 1 day transactional I almost never use the IRA.

I was just introduced to a woman who, in 1997, purchased a city lot and built a ~1,300 sqft. block home in a non-coastal (rather rural) Florida city with the intention of living there for many years.

There are people out there who love to make folks jump through hoops by dangling money in front of them, but have no intention of ever giving up that power by actually handing the money over.

My intentions are to eventually move my other properties to the LLC, however they are financed and I have not yet decided how to go about getting it done, my question is, right now I have my personal checking account, my rental checking acct, and now my LLC checking acct, I would like to dump the rental checking acct and just run everything through the LLC checking acct. what do you all think?

Duplex units and other rentals have valuations usually based on the income approach and as such, your intention to "flip" should not take into consideration rental increases could cause the problem Steve pointed out.

You just need all your ducks in a row with the B-C, disclose your intent to the lenders, and find a title company comfortable with back to back closings.Probably the 2 areas with the most issues are making sure the shorting lender will allow the back to back and not require a 30 day hold.

If it's your intention to be a pro, then you should already have an idea of what you want to charge for your services.
