On-market
I negotiated a seller financing with the seller, and he agreed to my terms. This deal would not have been possible without this.
They failed to disclose material facts. I used it to our advantage rather than listening to my investors and filing a lawsuit. I got us $275k worth of cash credits. I am a 20% owner of this deal.

Seller financing at way lower interest than traditional lender rate.

Rehab and cash for keys.

It will appraise for at least 2.5X of the original purchase price in a 3-year time period.
