Creative investing on the low end homes

[John Barr]

I currently live in San Antonio, TX and for those of you that are unfamiliar with the market here we have a VERY large below average and low end market. 

I have been an investor for about a year now and quite my job about two months ago to pursue REI full time. As my business partner and I really started to study the market here in SA we noticed that the low end has a huge amount of potential.

As the market has been getting much more competitive we have started to see a shift in the leads we are getting moving to the low end. So we figured this was a perfect time/market to start learning more innovative strategies for these area's.

Our favorite strategy that we have started to focus on is seller financing and Sub-To deals. We also have started researching selling off partials of notes to recoup out initial investments.

My question to the BP community and why I put this in the innovative strategies is. What are some of of the other investors favorite strategies for low end housing?
