Best Creative Financing Method for Your Market?

[John Chan]

I started this thread to try and find out which creative acquistion methods investors think are best for a low money down method of acquiring real estate and why.

Out of all the methods (lease-options, land contracts, subject 2s, rent-to-own, seller finance, etc), what makes a particular method work better than another in your market? I know that around my market of Cincinnati, land contracts are much more popular than subject-2 amongst investors.

I know some of you current investors specialize in subject-2's, land contracts, etc so I'd like to hear some of your opinions.
