In about 5 hours, I had received 60 messages from people asking about the property!

My wife grew up in Indy and we typically go back once a year , so I would love to stay in touch and maybe grab a coffee when we are in town.

If so, then that makes little sense either.But if you plan on buying saying a 400k to 500k house, then yes, sell it and grab the equity now. 

Greetings all, I came across a deal that caught my attention because the seller is willing to seller finance for the buyer so long they put down a deposit.

@Josiah Collins, The two numbers you want to pay close attention  to are the net sales price (contract minus closing costs) and net proceeds (the net sales price minus mortgage pay off).  

Sounds like you've received some solid (albeit expensive) education. 

I want to run this person's advertisement on a local facebook page by some experienced tax professionals:"If you know any home owners who had hurricane and flood damage, let them know there is a special tax deduction for fair market value loss, and their 2016 income tax return can be redone now for an additional check that can be received in as little as 6 weeks from now.

I wanted to take a few minutes to thank everyone for the private messages that I received especially from a couple of people in particular @Nghi Le and @Sandra Warren that helped point (lead) me in the right direction.

I have mailed about 500 letters total and have purchased four buildings (13 units), flipped some land, wholesaled a property, and received a referral fee for another lead.

I understand I’ll have to hire a property Manager, I just don’t understand how security funds are handled Incase of emergency and immediate attention in the scenario where I may or may not be able to reach right away .
