Ok, I finally scraped up enough dough (and nerve) to buy the above and want to know if I can do anything with them other than wait till the redemption period is up in 2015? Thanks

Why would an owner sell by issuing a LAND CONTRACT instead of the traditional way lending institutions do it at closing? After all isn't it the same when the buyer defaults to foreclose on them and the FSBO will get their property back anyway?

What should buyers be aware of when doing a LAND CONTRACT with a FSBO? Thanks in advance

Is anyone familiar with a company called Halo Asset Management located in Allen, TX? I cannot find anything about them in the BBB and would like a personal opinion of anyone who's done business with them. Thanks in advance.

Brian, Scott, Charles, Jon, you are all very brave to have kept it up despite the obstacles you've went through, I'm glad to read how it turned out in the end. I guess it takes a lot of courage, faith and backbone not to give up on REI, eh? Thank you all for sharing your stories.

WOW. student loans to finance..........that must have took nerve. Glad to hear about your success. Thankyou for posting this

Me and I'm certain there are others, would like to hear about your very 1st deal. What was it, steps you took to make it happen, were you solo with no partner or mentor or if you had a mentor, who was it? and how much did you make at it.

James Vermillion, thank you for your recent reply. I'm not afraid of work and I enjoy learning new and challenging things. I will take your advice seriously and remember it. I only wish we could work together but since we cannot, I will continue scouring BB for pointers. I hope you won't mind my coming back to you with any questions I might run across in the future as I feel I can work with you. I almost feel as if I know you personally or you know me personally as all you wrote was true. Best of luck to you, be safe, protect yourself always and remember, I appreciate you.

I appreciate and thank you for your advice. I'd like to have a partner like you. Would you take me in and let me follow your lead so I can be a success?

You might consider partnering with another. Watchout as birddog in Texas, you can cross the line as acting in a brokerage capacity if you don't take an interest in the property. :)

After reading your unfortunate experience with a wholesaler, it makes me leary and want to change ships again. I'm a newbie, have not done any deals yet but was so hoping to start with Wholesaling as a means of supplementing my income. So now what in your opinion would be the safest, quickest, easiest way to start? Thanks in advance

I'm also a newbie and you can bet your last dollar, I'm going to be here bombarding the site with questions until I get my first deal, so if it annoys anyone in particular, you know what you have to do to get me to stop. H-E-L-P M-E! lol Thanks in case I forget to say it after getting my first 5 digit check :) Looking forward to a bright future with BP mentors
