Also can the bank appraisal  come it higher that what was paid IF the home was bought at a discount AND the homes in the surrounding area are of higher value? 

The other option is to find apartment complexes with companies that are motivated to sell, that way you might be able to get the property at a discount.

Negotiate a 50% discount on the purchase price on the lack of marketable title.

If you're interested in becoming a pro member - I would listen to the podcast for a few episodes or take a webinar, they often offer discount codes on annual memberships! 

So now I am trying to look at it as just an outright purchase even though it isn't discounted in any way.

Why would you ever give large discounts to people?

There's a 2-family rental property that I'm looking at: To generate any positive numbers on the deal, I have to work at a discount from the asking price of 20%, and factoring in approx. $10k in repairs, I come out with:-- Cash on Cash of 2.2%, -- Cap Rate of 5.45%, -- Gross Rent Multiplier of 6.3 -- Break-Even 90% and this gets me a net of just under $100 per door per month. 

.) = 25K max price.As you can see that is 50% discount from where it is currently listed, which is highly unlikely I would get it.

Discounted/low-cost housing in Goleta goes for about $750,00 and sells for around 950,000, after renovation. 

I’ve been listening to the “The Closers Survival Guide”.I’m attempting to buy properties at deep discounts by the way.
