Going forward I will pay more attention to different possibilities of neighborhood boundaries and model different outcomes of appraisals based on that.

The tailers are all late 60's early 70s models.

You have a GREAT model going.

There are still some out there, but for the most part the big ones have since gone under because of their bad business models, or inkling to screw people, or whatever happened.

It seems they have a similar business model to the charity scam which was run where they attract investors.

If the owner glosses over and says " I do not keep great records but he has been a model tenant" then the price starts going way down on the purchase.Anything I can't verify that will create a problem for me I will get the property real cheap to handle those issues.

Lease Option Assignments are very simple and the process is easy if you have the right system. 1 out of three owners I speak to I get the property, but you have to be looking in the right place to find the owner that this business model would work for.

I'd like to incorporate wholesaling to my business model.

It would be fun to list them here and comment on each one, but unproductive.I largely changed my marketing model about twenty years ago based, in part, on the distraction caused by an emotional caller reacting to my letter and channeling their life problems in my direction at all hours.

What if they've been a model tenant for 6-12 months and it's just a one time issue.
