God Speed   Michael Short 

I am aiming for something that produces enough cash flow that perhaps if I rent out one side, and maybe a part of the other while I live there, I might be able to achieve some sort of house Haque, Which would be great as it would enable me to continue saving at the same speed that I am now, living in a shared situation.

I have not done any wholesale deals yet and I am hoping this would speed up the process.

. :-)Either way, all the best and Gods speed in your future endeavors!

Just depends how intelligent and up to speed someone is on the que of accounts they are handling.

Keep reading you'll learn there are so many motivations for people to sell and when they want speed (to get rid of a house as quickly as possible) they aren't concerned with competitive prices.

That said, I have one tenant who works for a landcare company and yes I negotiated with him to knock down the rent and have him mow the lawn which he does at a blazing speed with his ZTR. 

What techniques would you all suggest to get past this speed bump and purchase our first property?

Lately i been losing deals because i didn't the speed of closing quickly. from what i understand that the advantage of using hard money.I did reach out to one hard money lender but he wouldn't talk terms until i had a deal.

There were a few really large areas on the east side of the city that were just speed built neighborhoods.
