You can’t target motivated sellers.

Ashcroft is also offering additional GP equity on a future deal.  

My primary experience recently w/ Atlanta wholesalers has been mispriced properties due to the additional margin added.

Through wargaming, it is easy to see how the motivations of the operator can become very misaligned from that of the investor when they use a Preferred Return or Waterfall structure.  

I say you are VERY wrong.In my area older renovated houses demand top dollar on rents and I can find distressed properties or motivated sellers so I can buy at huge discounts for cash.I do not have constant repairs as I fix them up correctly after I buy them.House values are based on comps.

You might have bigger payments then, but you would anyway if you structured it as a lease option.Depending on how motivated the seller is, you might be able to negotiate even better terms such as lower interest rate or deferring some of the interest owed the seller until you refinance, option(s) to extend loan payoff, etc.

I thought having dual agent might more motivate him to sell to us due to high commission. 

In addition, you can only OO one property at a time as a primary. 

But the real secret to making money in real estate is finding the right properties at the right price—and that's where off-market deals come in.Off-market properties typically cost less than those listed on the MLS because sellers are often motivated by reasons other than price, like financial distress or personal circumstances.

What I would need is motivation.
