Keep your 6 months sense of velocity on, and also take @Joe Villeneuve point of focus on getting deals not properties, deals can come in many different ways, solo or partnerships that fit your current financial buying power. Life is worth living get into action!

@Tim Kaminski Glad you asked this question. I just bought my primary this November for $135K, and is appraised by bank appraiser at $208K
Strategy will be the same, use a heloc as down payment on a good deal, will eliminate mortgage insurance using 20% down. The property will need to cash flow enough to pay the new loan plus the heloc.
So I should get approx. $50K in the heloc ltv numbers.
looking at a duplex that I can buy approx. $150k, and rent each side for approx. $1,100
I should be cash flowing worst case scenario $700-$800 after loan payments , expenses, etc.
Thank to all who are sharing answers, is helping me also. Good luck Tim.

$135,000 Purchased Price

$100,000 Equity (compared to market value)
No agents involved in the transaction.
Contract from excuted signed to closing 30 days
What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?
This purchase was the result of developing a great Landlord/Tenant relationship
This was not ever an option lease.
It is now our primary home at our long time established community since 2014
We are skipping the moving boxes shenanigans for now, yazz!
How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?
Be crazy enough to always share your dreams and ideas with people.
I am enjoying for the past 2.5 years the results of self development and Grant Cardone's teachings, knowledge of Bigger Pockets, Eating up all the books recommended by guest.
How did you finance this deal?
Zero Down 30 year fixed
What was the outcome?
Seller gets to enjoy their retirement.
We get to continue our daily routine as usual, no moving, no nothing.
Next is to utilize the equity as a down payment for the next MFH property, hopefully merge another equity partner together to expand the opportunity for my next deal.
Lessons learned? Challenges?
I had up to $13,000 saved up at the beginning of the year, after a few tries through out previous year in making an offer, I tilted the balance and decided to take that money and invest in "Great Memories" with family and friends, and oh boy we did like rockstar's!
I wish I can say I regret spending that savings, but I honestly don't, it was the right time to enjoy our self's. But If I knew they were going to so quickly change their minds, maybe I would of done a little less fun ;-) YOLO!
Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?
No agents involved.

Post: Loan assumption

Sub2 and Loan assumption are two different things.
As a buyer same results you still paying down the existing loan be it through the seller/sub2 which seller is still responsible for or once loan is assumed you the buyer are responsible for.
Assuming the loan, the seller needs to contact their bank and find out if the loan can be assumed by a new buyer.
I have a current deal that owner of the home is with a $40K mortgage. Offer purchase price is $100K
reparis $7K
ARV is $200K
so the move is I assume the $40K and seller finance the remaining $60K with them.
Banks don’t usually allow assumptions so these types of transaction are usually handled without involving them.
