The project is 1.9 million for the land and then the development of the low-income housing Beginner development is OK with a lot of financiers (including us). 

I have purchased properties in the past with owner financing.

So, with no foundational knowledge of real property, and no capital, his only alternatives are (1) “bluff” the homeowner into thinking he has the money and intent to close the purchase himself and or convince the homeowner he has an extensive list of cash ready interested buyers (“partners”) with whom he’s done dozens of prior deals or (2) pack up shop, write off the money invested in mentoring to a worthless investment, and decide IF real estate is right for home.  

Ed, The deal fell through on the land we were going to purchase. 

I have a lot of clients that ask me for creative ways to purchase property.

Make sure your contract provides you with permission to market the property, which includes marketing on the MLS. 

I settled on NBT bank for my 7 family purchase. 

Do you have a plan to purchase if you get someone who might be interested?

I am interested in purchasing a rental property in the Houston, TX area.

With rights to extinguish the buyer's ownership and take the asset for himself.And if there is some flexibility on some issues with the lender that might make up for the inflexibility of the seller on some issues including price.
