@Scott Casey, there is a way you can utilize the seller financing deal and the 1031 exchange.

With the market shifting, I’m seeing some interesting changes—pricing fluctuations, seller motivation, and evolving deal structures.I’m reaching out to fellow note investors, buyers, and brokers to get your take:How has your note pricing strategy changed lately?

Hey community! I'm new here, but not new to entrepreneurship. Short version, I've been traveling the country for part of my work and see the value in building a real-estate portfolio based on some of the niche things ...

288k is a big discount down on a seller that had multiple offers.

That way, when something stands out (better cash flow, higher ROI, motivated seller), you’ll spot it right away.

Wholesaling and seller financing are powerful tools, especially when you're starting lean.

Everything works with motivated sellers and nothing works with unmotivated sellers.

Many listing agents are aware the sellers are demanding too much for their dated, overpriced houses.

Almost all our purchases have had value add (sweat equity).We are currently looking for 1) starter flips 2) small MF value adds ideally with alternate below market financing for OO to house hack (or not OO)  3) highly motivated sellers selling below market price preferably high quality locations.I have made recent offers in non local vacation markets.
