It's hard enough for California (insert anywhere usa) investors to get backyard financing for out of state purchases.

The seller and I had negotiated and operated in good faith up until that point and I had no reason to believe he wouldn't honor our agreement.This would have been my first multi-family purchase so I guess these kinds of lessons are learned through experience and the hard way.I was just wondering if my attorney who knew the situation would normally inserted language in to the contract release to prevent this sort of thing from happening.

I've uploaded our local board contract, along with all required addenda and have essentially inserted mail merge fields that pull info from the property and from my offer terms (all I have to type to make an offer is the following:Offer PriceEMD amount (in numbers and words)Buying entityInspection DaysAfter that, I push a button in Salesforce and the entire offer is generated as a .pdf.  

I'm currently in the market for purchasing another investment property (multifamily) and am looking for good contingency clauses to insert into the sales contract when the time comes to pull the trigger. 

@Jerry Puckett Quick update - 2 years later....I'm consistently in the top 5 (usually #1 or 2) on the big 3 search engines for Weatherford and Granbury with keywords like "we buy houses (insert town)" and "sell house fast (insert town)" and variants of those.For Fort Worth, I'm usually midway to the bottom of page 2 on Google, and on Bing and Yahoo It varies from middle of 1st page to bottom of 2nd page.My SEO Buddies tell me I need to activate the blog on my website which I haven't done yet, and start blogging about all things RE in Fort Worth to get my rankings up.  

If I find a buyer and then insert an investor or myself into the transaction and make a lower offer to the lender, than that will get me in big trouble as the Realtors in Connecticut found out!

I completed a similar rehab: needed insertion of beams for structural support when we took down a wall between dining and kitchen, plus new deck, and a few window enlargements.  

I work for <insert name and description with a bunch of big words that actually tell you noting about what they do> and I am looking to meet with you to talk about how we can synergize" "What zip codes do you invest in? 

Ask them where the (insert your desired rank here) are living.  

*Insert a quote about learning from the mistakes of others etc etc.Would really appreciate the heads up so I can make a smart move into Buy & Hold investing.Cheers :)
