My first step was to ensure I tracked everything!!

I am utilizing PODIO CRM for staying on top of my leads and ensuring I process them to closing in the most efficient way possible.

If he’s willing to carry the note for ten or fifteen that may work but I’d sure hate in 5 years, to be on the hook for over half a million dollars and be scrambling to secure funds to save my butt from losing everything .

If you are looking to flip it, Then you want to negotiate the price to ensure that the ARV is above both the price and the repair cost of the property. 

You will get decisions to them immediately, pay for rightful change orders without delay, that you have secured financing and have the required amount of cash on hand to cover any discrepancies in the draw schedule, and will provide X number of units a year.

So after go back and forth with the seller to strike a deal that made sense for the both of us, I secured a buyer that was instantly ready to buy my contract and we just closed escrow 4/26/2019.

Ensure at least 70% of the tangible property owned or lease by the Company is Qualified Opportunity Zone property.5.

The property has been on the market for ~15 months, it's listed too high, but I will fight that battle once I feel secure that I can finance the purchase.

When you are putting a house under contract how do you ensure that you have all the appropriate clauses in the contract to protect yourself?

When I was less financially secure then I am now.
