(Yes, Carlton's course had a few paragraphs that addressed private money, however he didn't really say how to find it or secure it) I devoured every book I could find in the store on creative real estate investing.

I invested in a semi-professional camera with an ultra-wide angle lens and I don't regret it.It cost me around $1,000 and I already got that money back by attracting more tenants quicker.

The transaction is exactly like buying a rental property with a tenant and not like a mortgage or deed of trust transaction which are sold as standalong instruments with their secured notes.

The bad things are dragging the cord around, and that they usually aren't as wide or as powerful as a gas engine. 

Take a secured loan against a vehicle that is paid off.

The deal:1987 Oak Creek 3/2, ~1300 sf double wide. 

If I put a piece of say 2X3 over the tiled wall, from one end of the sink to the other end, covering the damaged tiles, secured with perhaps recessed Tapcon screws. 

My passion is to work directly with buyers to secure the perfect financing options.  

I am also trying to add value by helping my cash buyer secure funding with some of my lending sources. 

If not, it may be a better time investment to try and secure better financing for yourself.
