My sister, who also happens to be my partner, lives in one of our primary farm areas.  

@Brandon Turner to handle my multimedia outreach.Bill Gulley because I buy multifamily and these two guys really know what they are talking about, and both have been there and done that.This would get me started, then I have 481 colleagues and over 100,000 other BP brothers and sisters to back this up. 

when those mortgage lates went out I got a call from my sister asking me what the hell was I doing because she received one.

I like to be a transaction engineer, not a one trick pony.Because in 2016 credit is still tight right now you should look at having a "problem-solving real estate business".I call it "don't be a one trick pony"You should be a problem solver for seller having a few tools, such as sub2, lease options, wraps, etc for acquiring properties on top of listing and buying whole for all cash "as is".So what I'm going to do is to discuss what I would do if I were training my brother or my sister to set up a "terms RE business" so that they can make some money quickly, by "looking for problems".I am the reverse of Jerry Pucket, I farm expireds, cancelleds, long DOMs, FSBOs, FRBOs and Wholesalers that have pretty houses, no work, and no equity.So I would say, if the property is in a nice A B neighborhood, good schools, above the median,"<Name>, it sounds like a great house, I'd love to walk through it and perhaps write an offer"Get all decision makers there.Here is a "cash or terms" lead sheet.https://www.biggerpockets.com/files/user/REISkills...And a long post about a business plan for 2016https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/83/topics/264...

Then her sister who just broke up with her bf needs a place short time- which turns in forever.   

My sister says never ever do Business with any man one on one. 

I think you might have to go after the driver's insurance for your deductible, but that would be it.A driver ran into the front of my sister-in-law's home last year, and I believe that's what they did - filed a claim with their own insurance.
