If the Realtor has more deals like this one... then No I wouldn't go around the realtor.

Hi! I have rentals in North County San Diego and in the Central Valley - I’m new to Fresno and we are starting to invest here. Would love to connect.

I like this thread. Any good AI companies that generate motivated seller leads? I'm not scared to spend money. We are currently spending $20-30K per month on marketing.

Madison Trust is the way to go... I use them. Its pretty cool to have Check Book Control of your self directed ira to lend funds or purchase other none traditional assets to be owned by an entity that belongs to your ira.

I've been in your boat a few times. Best advice is to get it rented out asap and move on. Our energy is more valuable than what you could potentially financially recover.

Find a few local people that you can be mentored. The matrix scares the sh@t out of me and is a deep dark place for so many people.

Look at property with a different lense. Visualize how you can create the 1% rule after you acquire the property.
