My thinking is interest rates are going up and increases "due on sale risk" on loan being called
Exit strategy is always lease purchase or lease option :)

Okay the spring is starting and I just want to ask everybody
are you ready to go talk to Sellars?
In this thread is marketing ideas for expired listings, for listed houses, for landlords, for FSBOs, for we buy houses people that have thin leads
In this post I'm going to keep it really simple
Step one you need a good attorney
Step two you need a good Rmlo
Step three you need access to the MLS
Step four you need a letter of intent to talk to Sellers about entering into a lease and option or subject to or wraparound mortgage
Step five you need to know the basics of talking to sellers that have little equity
Step six is you need to close on a letter of intent, and follow through to get the seller to sign either a lease with an option, a wrap around mortgage sale, or a subject to existing financing sale
Step seven depends on whether or not you have a lease with option or sub two or wrap
If it's a lease with option, you want to enter into a lease with option with the seller and your LLC. Then get the keys and place a large sign on their front yard
If it's a sub to or a wrap, you want to take possession and have 30 days paid on the house upfront so that you can either rented out as an owner or lease purchase the property
Hope that brings clarity to this process, on the seller side

That link above is your cheapest fastest way to learn flipping and pricing rehabs.
I'd get your realtor license and have access to MLS
I'd work with an experienced flipper where you are.
And learn pretty houses low equity acquisitions, like sub2, lease options and wraps. Less time, no banks.
