S3 Ep 58Episode 58 New Beginnings
Send us Fan MailIn this episode of The Most Dwanderful Real Estate Podcast Ever, Dwan recaps the correct five equities of life and celebrates the eve of a new year, new decade over a healthy, dairy free, sugar free cup of hot chocolate in her favorite Route 66 coffee mug. As Dwan recaps the decades of her own life, she shares Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 and charges listeners to read it themselves, make a chart of the five equities of life (Financial, Spiritual, Mental, Emotional and Physical), and add a personal thought, weekly, about each equity. This week, she especially highlights the “emotional” equity and expounds with her own personal stories in relation to her “mental” mindset. Dwan closes this challenge by paralleling the three stages of real estate, “seed, time and harvest” to the Ecclesiastes passage.

S2 Ep 57Episode 57 Build Your House on a Rock
Send us Fan MailThis is a special episode of The Most Dwanderful Real Estate Podcast Ever because Dwan talks about her relationship with Jesus and how you can build your house upon a rock. If you have listened to even a single episode of this podcast, you have heard Dwan say “the truth is in the red letters”, and perhaps you have wondered what that means. In the Bible, most versions have printed the words of Jesus spoken during his earthly ministry in red text. As a Christian with a strong relationship with Jesus, Dwan knows that the Bible, especially the words of Jesus, are the key to living an abundant life on earth and getting to spend eternity in Heaven. As we all prepare to celebrate Christmas this week, Dwan thought this would be the perfect time to talk about the birth of Jesus and some of his key teachings while He was living among us. Jesus was born into this world as the Son of God, fully human and fully divine, to provide the only way for us to get to Heaven. He taught on many subjects, but He spent a lot of time talking about money, saying things like “a man cannot serve two masters: God and money” and “the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil” but also pointing out that He came to give us abundant life that could not be taken away from us by Satan. Through Him, God set up the only pathway to Heaven, the most inclusive exclusivity because anyone who accepts Jesus and has genuine faith can enter in, but many people reject this idea and instead believe that either there is no God or that everyone on earth worships the same God. In order to have success in life and to be able to go to Heaven one day to be with God forever, the only way is to build your life upon the rock of Jesus. Not on yourself, not on your spouse, not on money, not on your ambitions, not on your kids – only on Jesus. When your foundation is strong, anything you build on top of it will be strong as well.Support the showThanks again for listening.

S2 Ep 56Episode 56 Closing a Deal In Today Cash

She encourages new listeners to listen to previous shows on scripts and “how-to”s so you, too, can learn how it works. Dwan then issues the second of the 5-week challenge to GIVE. She shares some personal testimonies of giving to help you with ideas of how to get started with the giving challenge and encourages listeners of the benefits of giving in silence all year round. Dwan closes her second challenge with the importance of setting your goals for the next decade by sharing the personal challenges of the past decade and what she claims in hope for the next decade as the best decade ever. Remember- in both giving and real estate, you don’t have to start big. Just start! She emphasizes that she has walked hundreds of miles in your shoes and now she wants you to walk in hers.Support the showThanks again for listening.

S2 Ep 54Episode 54 The FIVE Equities of Life
Send us Fan MailOn this episode of The Most Dwanderful Real Estate Podcast Ever, Dwan discusses something that she has mentioned before on the podcast but that is a very timely topic for the end of the year: The Five Equities of Life. Dwan heard about this idea about 15 years ago, and it really sparked for her a new chapter of self-awareness and intentional living. The Five Equities are: financial, spiritual, emotional, mental, and physical. Dwan writes these five words across the top of a big flip chart page and keeps a running list of what is going on in each of those areas of her life, adding and removing things as needed. This allows her to look back at what has happened so far this year and have a good idea of where she wants to go based on where she is been and where she is now. Having an honest assessment of yourself and choosing to intentionally set and work towards goals is imperative to a successful life. Since starting this practice of maintaining a list of her Five Equities of Life, Dwan has also become more conscious of her self-talk, choosing to remove negative self-talk from her life. Did you know that 75% of your thoughts every day are negative? And 80% of those negative thoughts are about yourself? Thinking negatively will lead to negative self-esteem, self-limiting beliefs, and an unhealthy judgment of others. You will be amazed how much your life will change once you decide to take every thought captive and remove negative self-talk from your mind. This incorporates the spiritual, emotional, and mental equities and can be one of the catalysts to the life change you have been looking for, setting you up for success.Support the showThanks again for listening.

S2 Ep 53Episode 53 Fastest Way To Sell Your Rehab
Send us Fan MailIn this episode of The Most Dwanderful Real Estate Podcast Ever, Dwan will tell you the fastest way to sell your rehab. This is the last episode of the rehabbing mini-season and it is a great one to finish on. Dwan’s biggest pet peeve with rehabbers is when people rip out a bathroom or a kitchen and then put all of the appliances/fixtures and cabinets in exactly the same spots. Once you demo the room, take measurements and go to Home Depot. They can digitally redesign your space and make it feel like a brand new room. Speaking of bathrooms, Dwan and Bill always install urinals in the bathrooms they redo and the men always love them. Most rehabbers try to sell the house to the women based on the kitchen and bathrooms, but if you put a urinal in, the men will be on board too. In order to sell your rehab quickly, Dwan recommends that you install the tile that looks like hardwood, install two kitchen faucets, put in an ice maker, and buy a kitchen suite so that all of your appliances match and are updated. When it comes time to sell, don’t immediately list your house with a real estate agent. Advertise and put on an open house yourself and see what kind of interest you can drum up. Start out pricing your house 5% below market value knowing that if you list it with an agent, they will bump up the price to account for their commission fee. Every 30 days that the house doesn’t sell, lower the price. With these tips, you are sure to sell your rehab in a timely manner and make what you expected to make off of the deal.Support the showThanks again for listening.

S2 Ep 52Episode 52 Where To Spend Rehabbing Dollars
Send us Fan MailThe topic of this episode of The Most Dwanderful Real Estate Podcast Ever is where to spend rehabbing dollars. Unless you have done more than 5 rehabs, you do not have enough experience to guess how much your rehab will cost. Take your budget and double it because things will come up and the rehab most likely will cost more than you are expecting. If it doesn’t, then you have planned for the worst and now you are making extra profit. Dwan provides listeners with some great money saving tips when it comes to paint and carpet, but the most important thing to remember is not to be cheap. There is a line between saving money and being cheap, and you should be careful to never cross that line. Dwan is very loyal to Home Depot because of their consistent quality and the classes that they offer. One of her money saving tips is to choose a designer paint color that you like and take the paint chip to the Home Depot paint counter and ask them to match that color but use the type of paint that is on sale. Her second tip is to make sure the carpet you are looking at is FHA approved, then choose the medium quality carpet but purchase a thicker carpet pad to make it feel more luxurious. Finally, Dwan coaches listeners to put aside your personal preferences and think about what is trendy right now as well as what would best serve your buyers in the future. Don’t make drastic changes to the floorplan or unique design elements that are original to the home. Even if you don’t like it, someone else might fall in the love with the house simply because of that thing.Support the showThanks again for listening.

S2 Ep 51Episode 51 Number ONE Mistake New Rehabbers Make
Send us Fan MailOn this episode of The Most Dwanderful Real Estate Podcast Ever, Dwan talks about the misconception that people have that “rehabbing” and “flipping” a house are the same thing as well as describing the main mistake that rehabbers make with a property. If you listen to this podcast every week, you should be prepared to go out there and be successful in real estate investing because Dwan provides you with the step-by-step instructions for what to do and what not to do. Dwan and Bill meet so many people and couples who have purchased an investment property that they are initially excited to do rehab on the weekends, but they have also seen the same thing happen time and time again. The couple starts out strong, working their 9-5 jobs throughout the week and then working all day Saturday and Sunday at their rehab property for the first weekend or two, but they start to get tired or run into unexpected issues and begin spending less and less time at the house every weekend, extending their timeframe for completing the house and putting it back on the market for a month or more. It is also likely, if the couple is not familiar with all aspects of rehabbing a house, that they will end up having to hire someone to finish or fix certain portions of the rehab, cutting into their profits and timeline even more. The main message of this episode is: be realistic. If you don’t have the time and expertise to complete all the work yourself, hire someone up front. There are also things you can do in the neighborhood around your rehab property to protect your interests and get the neighbors in your corner.

S2 Ep 50Episode 50 New Season of Rehabbing - Must Know Tips
Send us Fan MailAs you may have noticed, Dwan took an unexpected break from recording The Most Dwanderful Real Estate Podcast Ever during the month of October, but now she is BACK and better than ever! In the aftermath of her rheumatoid arthritis diagnosis a couple of months ago, Dwan has been finding her “new normal” and adjusting to medications and dietary restrictions and then getting off of medications due to side effects. Now that Dwan knows what is going on with her body and has experienced a few flare-ups since her diagnosis as well as a 10-day long migraine, she has a much deeper level of understanding for people who suffer from chronic pain. She encourages everyone who knows someone with chronic pain to be more empathetic and know that they truly are struggling just to make it through the day. Whether you feel like it or not, you likely need to do some work on your diet to improve the quality of what you are eating and figure out how different foods affect you. Dwan challenges you to cut out carbs and sugar for a whole week and get into an exercise routine and just see if you feel any better. You might not feel like you are not feeling well right now, but you will likely be amazed by how much better you can feel by living a healthy lifestyle. During this break, Dwan also reevaluated the format of the podcast and from now on will be teaching mini-seasons that last one month rather than the longer seasons that had been lasting 3 months each. There will also be more opportunities for pop-up learning and more of an emphasis put on topics that need to be integrated into your real estate investing business.

Ep 49Episode 49 Make Three Creative Offers
Send us Fan MailOn this episode of The Most Dwanderful Real Estate Podcast Ever, Dwan and Bill are still on Route 66 and Dwan shares with listeners how to make three creative offers on each property. This is the last episode of the rentals season of the podcast, so next week she will begin teaching about rehabbing. She begins by describing the rentals process: wholesale 2-3 houses until you have banked 6 months of income, then budget that money to pay yourself a salary so you can quit your job and spend 40 hours per week working on real estate, pay for some rental properties, then continue this process until you are able to get to the power of 13 or purchase some commercial rental property. Look to purchase properties in an opportunity zone like Clinton, Iowa and remember Dwan’s tips about property managers, unannounced visits, and taking photographs of your tenants. Dwan recommends submitting three creative offers on every real estate transaction using some combination of cash and terms. She and Bill just bought 3 buildings in Clinton, Iowa, by offering the seller (1) an amount below the asking price for an outright purchase (2) an amount between offer 1 and the asking price with a high down payment and the seller carrying the note and (3) the asking price with interest-only for 2 years, a low down payment, and the seller carrying the note. If you do creative offers like this, you can end up owning more real estate than if you looked at each deal as straightforward.Support the showThanks again for listening.

Episode 48 How Much Rehab to Do
Send us Fan MailThe topic of this episode is knowing how much rehab to do to your rental properties. If you are purchasing the property for 60-65% of the value like Dwan tells you to, you should have some extra capacity to do some rehab yourself or hire someone to do it for you. You want the property to be nice for your tenants, but if you will need to do too much work to make it livable, perhaps that property is not the best one for you to buy. Dwan likes to buy clean properties and keep them clean by having the right tenants who will take care of their space. If you provide a good place for your tenants to stay and you build a good relationship with them, they will stay for a long time. Dwan also provides some recommendations such as buying used or scratch/dent appliances, putting down tile, laminate, or carpet squares instead of traditional carpet, and installing smoke and carbon monoxide combo detectors. Dwan has been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis, which isn’t great news but she is relieved to know what is going on and how she can work to keep her symptoms managed. This will be especially interesting during her trip with Bill on Route 66 where they will be eating out a lot and not able to be as active.

Ep 47Episode 47 Hire a Property Manager
Send us Fan MailOn this episode of The Most Dwanderful Real Estate Podcast Ever, Dwan discusses when and how to hire a property manager. Being a landlord to a few tenants that you have interviewed and chosen ahead of time can be great. But when you own multiple properties, tenant requests and problems can be exhausting. Dwan recommends that you manage your own properties when you just have one or two because it is important for you to know how to do all of the things that a property manager does down the road when you are ready to interview and hire one. She also says that you should tell tenants that you “work for the owners” so they don’t find out you are the owner and start asking for more leniency than you want to give. Once you get five properties, you should definitely consider hiring a property management company to help you with collecting rent, handling maintenance requests, and dealing with any other issues, but have a threshold of maintenance issues that must be brought to you for approval first. For example, some property managers get kickbacks from their friends who are in the HVAC or roofing businesses if they install one of their products at a property. Perhaps things over $500 should be brought to you for you to handle the bidding process. Also be sure you are very well-insured at all of your properties.Support the showThanks again for listening.

Ep 46Episode 46 Evictions
Send us Fan MailOn this episode of The Most Dwanderful Real Estate Podcast Ever, Dwan talks about the one thing that no one wants to do but sometimes has to be done: evictions. If your tenants violate any of the terms of your lease agreement, you can evict them based on the laws in your state. While late rent payments are one of the more common reasons for eviction, others could be damage to the property, unsanitary living conditions, more people living in the house than specified in the lease agreement, or having too many pets. Dwan has found that if you evict tenants by going through the system and giving them a 3-day-notice, the tenants can sometimes become hostile and trash your property as a way of “getting even” with you. Of course, this costs you as the landlord a lot of money to clean up. So Dwan’s alternative plan is to go to the tenant and simply tell them that it is not working out for them to live in your property for the various reasons you have outlined and that you would like for them to move out by the end of the month. Since you know that moving is expensive, you will return their deposit plus an additional 50% of their deposit amount in cash to them if they leave the property on time and in broom swept condition. Ninety percent of the time, the tenants will take this deal and it is a win-win for everyone involved. If not, do not be afraid to evict them through the justice system and make their lives more difficult because they did the same for you.Support the showThanks again for listening.

Ep 45Episode 45 Dwan's Truth and Selling Rentals.
Send us Fan MailThe subject of this episode of The Most Dwanderful Real Estate Podcast Ever is when to sell your rentals. But first, Dwan opens up about the day she got a collect call from jail. It was her husband, who had been caught selling a crazy amount of drugs (with his band mates). He would remain in jail for 5 years, leaving Dwan and Ayla to fend for themselves, which ultimately led Dwan down the path she is on now of real estate investing. This was the lowest and most frightening time of Dwan’s life. She divorced him while he was in prison because he was just not the person she had known, and she spent the better part of 10 years resisting any new relationships that would require trust. She met Bill and they dated long distance for 15 months before she built up enough trust to marry him. When it comes to knowing when to sell one or more of your rental properties, Dwan advises that you sit down for every 10 rentals you acquire and assess where you are. Which properties are in good and bad locations? How are your returns? How many Subject To properties do you have? Would it be beneficial for you to sell one property in order to pay off several of your others? You should only consider this if by selling one you could pay off at least two rental properties.

Ep 44Episode 44 Pay Off Your Rentals
Send us Fan MailOn this episode of The Most Dwanderful Real Estate Podcast Ever, Dwan talks about how to pay off your rentals. Contrary to what a lot of other real estate investors do and tell others to do, you should pay off your rentals before paying off your own assets. When you close your first deal, go ahead and quit your full-time job and use the profits from that deal to pay yourself a weekly salary to be a full-time real estate investor. Then when you close your next deal, you can give yourself a raise and/or save up until you can pay cash for another rental property. Once you have 3 rentals paid for and you’re on the way to the Power of 13, then you can start paying off your own assets. Dwan and Bill just welcomed a new grandbaby and kept little Benjamin’s older sisters for 9 days at their house, so they are still recovering. This August also marks 30 years since Dwan’s life was turned upside-down and she began her life as a single mother trying to find her way. Dwan also shares on this episode about her recent health issues and the continuing journey to find out what is going on. She would appreciate your prayers, and of course she will keep her loyal listeners posted as she starts to get some answers.

Episode 43 The Power of 13
Send us Fan MailYou have probably heard Dwan mention the Power of 13 before, but maybe this is the first time you have ever heard her explain it. Dwan has found this fail-proof method of creating passive income for yourself that can help you quit your desk job and start working on fulfilling your own dreams! Many real estate investors make the mistake of borrowing against their rentals for other investments or paying off their own houses and assets before paying off their rental properties, but Dwan challenges you to flip the script. Flip a few houses and pay off a rental property, flip a few houses and pay off another, and so on until you own 13 rental properties free and clear. Every month, set aside the income from 3 of those properties into an account for expenditures (taxes, insurance, and repairs) and then live off the income of the other 10. With this passive income coming in, you won’t have to work anymore and you will be able to pay off your own assets and get started on acquiring your next set of 13 properties until you have the amount of passive income coming in every month to give you the lifestyle you want.

Episode 42 Section 8 Rentals
Send us Fan MailOn this episode of The Most Dwanderful Real Estate Podcast Ever, the topic is Section 8 rentals. Many people don’t even consider having Section 8 tenants because they don’t want to be involved with “those people.” What they don’t realize is that people who use the program as it is intended are legitimately down on their luck and trying to support their children the best way they know how while they try to improve their situation. Dwan has a heart for these families because she really wants to help them get back on their feet with the support they need. From a landlord perspective, Section 8 is the most consistent income you can ask for. The government is never late on payments, and because there is such demand for Section 8 housing, it is unlikely that you will have a vacant property for more than a few weeks. Considering all of the money that the government takes from you every year in taxes, it is also nice for them to essentially pay off your rentals for you with very little effort on your part. You will, of course, interview the potential tenants and do the unannounced visit to their current living situation, and you’ll set clear expectations when each family moves in. Dwan has never had an issue with her Section 8 tenants because of these practices.

Send us Fan MailThe topic of this episode of The Most Dwanderful Real Estate Podcast Ever is asking yourself the question “What do you want to own?” It would be tempting to just jump into real estate investing based on the experience or recommendation of someone else that you should flip or rehab houses, but you need to sit down and write out what your actual goals are. Think about where you want your properties to be, who you want to work with, and what types of properties you want to have. Dwan and Bill have found that they love commercial and section 8 properties right now, and they will probably keep focusing on those projects for now.

Episode 40 Long-Term Rentals
Send us Fan MailOn this episode of The Most Dwanderful Real Estate Podcast Ever, Dwan discusses long term rentals. She specifically outlines the benefits of having tenants stay in your properties for more than 18 months, especially if they are good tenants and they are taking care of the house. She talks through exactly how to have this conversation with your tenants and offer them a discount on their monthly rent or to upgrade something in the house in exchange for a longer lease timeframe. While $25 per month might not be a big deal for you to discount, it can add up to be a big deal for the homeowners and it can save them from having to pack up and move every year. Additionally, Dwan stresses the importance of you and your tenants being properly insured. While it might seem wasteful to “throw away” cash every month on every property, if something ever happens to one of your buildings, you will be so glad that you had been investing in making sure everything would turn out ok. You should run your business like you are always trying to avoid a lawsuit, and you probably will.Support the showThanks again for listening.

Episode 39 Photograph Your Tenants
Send us Fan MailDwan discusses her practice of taking photos of her tenants in each room of the house at the beginning of their lease on this episode of The Most Dwanderful Real Estate Podcast Ever. By taking these photos, you are protecting yourself and holding your tenants accountable for any damage they create at the property while they are living there. This is the proof you need if they insist that hole in the wall was there when they moved in, much like car rental companies do an initial assessment of the state of the car with the client before and after they rent it. While things like this seem to be intimidating for new landlords, these kinds of measures protect you and allow you to create the wealth you need in order to pay off your rental properties as soon as possible and become a successful retired landlord.Support the showThanks again for listening.

Episode 38 The Giant Deposit
Send us Fan MailThe subject of this episode of The Most Dwanderful Real Estate Podcast Ever is “the giant deposit.” Dwan talks about her recent experience with her son going through this process of purchasing his first rental property and vetting the tenants with an unannounced pop-in visit as well as the conversation he had with them about the deposit. Dwan knows from experience that almost every time you require a security deposit of the same amount as a month’s rent, the tenants will ask you to use their security deposit as their last month’s rent, so by making the deposit $300-$400 higher than a month’s rent, you are almost guaranteeing that they will pay their last month’s rent in order to receive their deposit back.Support the showThanks again for listening.

Ep 37Episode 37 Rental Road To Riches
Send us Fan MailTo kick off the new season of The Most Dwanderful Real Estate Podcast Ever, Dwan overviews the topics to be covered on rentals and brings in some illustrations from her own experience. The type of rentals Dwan is talking about this season are ones where the investor is trying to build up a rental portfolio rather than specifically helping homeowners in distress, but it is very likely that there will be some crossover. From the paperwork to selecting the right tenants to working towards owning all of your rentals outright, Dwan will be walking you through the steps you should take to become a successful real estate investor with rentals. Many people encourage investors to leverage their rentals against each other rather than owning them all for cash, but those are the investors who lost everything during the Recession, while Dwan and her students were on firm footing. Dwan shares her #1 tip for rentals: no matter what, always make an unannounced visit at 8:00pm to the house where your potential tenants are living now. It will be awkward and they will be embarrassed to show you their house, but if you only judge them by their meeting with you, you will never really know how well they are going to take care of your house.Support the showThanks again for listening.

Ep 36Episode 36 Owner Partnering
Send us Fan MailDwan describes the process of owner partnering (also known as equity partnering) and the importance of getting your paperwork in order before venturing out with a homeowner in distress. Many things can go wrong, but many things can also go right, and the ideal outcome is for you to make a hearty profit, the homeowner to walk away with a good payout, and everyone to be happy at the end. Sometimes it is the homeowners that have a lot of equity in their house who come to you in the most desperation because they finally surrender to the fact that the bank will take their house otherwise. The most straightforward method for walking the homeowner through the process of equity partnering is with a written agreement, the terms of which are discussed using the pen and paper approach. Seeing the numbers all together really opens the homeowners’ eyes to the trouble they have gotten themselves into and the lifeline you are trying to throw them by partnering with them.Support the showThanks again for listening.

Ep 35Episode 35 Rent To Own
Send us Fan MailOn this episode of The Most Dwanderful Real Estate Podcast Ever, to topic is Rent to Own deals and how to do them right. The concept of Rent to Own is not that different than Owner Financing from last week, but the distinction is that you retain ownership of the property with Rent to Own. You have your tenants in the property sign lease and option documents as well as an agreement specifying the terms of your deal, then you take a down payment from them that will become their option money later on. If they end up not buying from you at the end of the agreement, that option money is yours to keep and you can turn right back around and start a new Rent to Own deal with new tenants. While Dwan has done plenty of these deals, she prefers Owner Financing more, and she explains that you might prefer different real estate investment options at different points in your life.

S1 Ep 34Episode 34 Why Owner Financing
Send us Fan MailThis episode of The Most Dwanderful Real Estate Podcast Ever is all about turning your Subject To deal into real sustainable wealth by offering owner financing to a new homeowner. Many families who fell on hard times during the recession about 10 years ago have still not been able to build up their credit enough for a bank to give them a home loan, so they are eager for owner financing home ownership opportunities to get them back on track. Of course, you will want to check their credit history to see if they have been making their rent, car, and credit card payments on time because if they have been consistently late, they will not pay you on time regardless of what they promise you. Not only is owner financing a lifesaver for the original homeowners and the new homeowners, but it is a surefire way for you to create wealth. Over the course of 1 owner financing property lifecycle of 5 years, you should be able to make $60,000, so imagine how lifechanging doing multiple deals per year could be.1Support the showThanks again for listening.

Episode 33 The Dreaded Subject-To
Send us Fan MailMany real estate investors avoid Subject To deals because they seem too complicated or advanced, but with Dwan’s help, you can master them in no time. This episode of The Most Dwanderful Real Estate Podcast Ever describes an overview of the Subject To process and Dwan gives listeners some crucial things to keep in mind before taking on a Subject To deal. As with all of our real estate investments, our goal is to help the homeowner who is in distress and about to lose their home. With a Subject To, you find a homeowner who has a house in really good condition, a fixed mortgage, and a low interest rate and you have them deed the house to you, while their name remains on the mortgage. You can either live in the house or make it a rental, but you make the monthly mortgage payments for about 5 years before refinancing. This will help build up the original homeowner’s credit and make it easier for them to get a new home loan down the road.Support the showThanks again for listening.

So many real estate investors out there are only in it for the money and they don’t do the right thing when it comes to protecting their homeowners. There are several things that you need in writing from the bank to absolve your homeowners from any further liability. Banks love nothing more than lying by omission and keeping as much of their money as possible, particularly when it comes to the closing fees and the actual deficit between the property value and the short sale price. If you don’t step in and use your expertise, your homeowners could get stuck with a huge tax problem or a $100,000 judgment that could prevent them from ever purchasing another property.Support the showThanks again for listening.

This second offer should tell the bank that you are serious about this property but you also want to point out to them all of the negative things about the property and the surrounding area. You want to jump your offer to 60% of the value of the house but also build fear in the mind of the bank based on other houses in the area, crime reports, and the list of registered sex offenders nearby. They will inevitably ask you why you want the house in light of all of the negative things you pointed out, and Dwan will cover that on the next episode about the third offer to the bank.
