We are not really creative, we enjoy seeing ideas..

Good job, and congrats on getting the appointment set, especially during these times of social distancing and stay-at-home orders. 

If these guys spent their creative theft time productively we'd all be living on Saturn and the common cold would be a distant memory. 

Otherwise, you can get creative and purchase a single family home and rent it by the room. 

(i asked the right questions) so I want to get creative with this and offer him this options purchase price 80K pay 30k cash now assign the contract to another buyer have him carry a 50k note due on 3 to 5 years no interestsif accepted this will be my first deal to do like this. here's some questions I don't have an answer to yet.who will pay the note in??

This can be done through social media, social networks, in person meetings, phone calls, networking events, etc.

Unless socialism is to prevail, which would destroy our economy as we know it, the answer is no.  

Once you have your first property, and you spend most your money you saved on the down payment, and fees, closing costs, etc, what are some creative strategies you may use to get back to buying your next great deal?

It's creative. 

Getting creative in finding properties that aren't necessarily on the MLS may be my only option.
