Today more than ever is an excellent opportunity for transactional engineers to buy subject-to. There are many exit strategies to work your deals, but today’s focus is on fixing and selling. Buy a house for as little as possible, make small fixes, and then sell. These could be starter homes, which are experiencing high demand. These deals don’t demand much work, and the houses sell quickly!
In this episode, hear about three deals Blair and Jeff are working on with different exit strategies. Learn how to buy subject-to, fix and flip, and how to get an $80K payday just for writing out a check to bring a loan current. Discover the difference between finding a buyer for a house versus finding a house for a buyer.
