🧨 INTRO: Welcome to the Club You Didn’t Know You Were In…
Ever feel like you’re doing everything right in creative real estate... but still no deals are closing?
Maybe you've got leads rolling in.
Maybe you’re following the guru scripts.
Heck, maybe you even made a few offers you were proud of.
And still — crickets.
Welcome to the club most investors didn’t know they were in:
The I-Don’t-Actually-Know-How-To-Structure-A-Deal Club.
This week, we're ripping the lid off the biggest silent killer in creative real estate:
Bad Deal Structuring (or worse — no structure at all).

Let’s break down the hidden frameworks, myths, and malpractice that are quietly killing your income.
(And yeah... you’ll see tools that actually fix this mess.)

🧲 AD SECTION (Keepin’ It Tight)

❌ The Real Reason You're Not Closing Deals (Hint: It’s NOT Leads)
You’ve got leads.
What you don’t have… is structure.
You jump on the phone, throw spaghetti offers at the wall, and pray one sticks.
Spoiler: They don’t.
Because deal structuring is not about offers.
It’s about conversations.
💣 The Anti-Negotiation Shift That Changes Everything
Forget the “let me convince you” garbage.
Anti-Negotiation flips the script:
You don’t argue with the seller. You partner with them to solve their pain.
Start with the 12 Magic Words:
“What would have to happen for me to buy your house today?”
Say it, then shut up.
Listen.
Then go deeper with “Tell me more about that…”
That one shift? It’s made me millions.
🔬 You Can’t Structure a Deal Until You Know What Hurts
Pain comes in two flavors:
Running from something: foreclosure, burnout, taxes, divorce
Running to something: new chapter, cash-out, retirement
Ask these 3 questions to find out fast:
“What’s more important — getting money now or maximizing profit over time?”
“Is this house costing you stress, or are you just done with it?”
“What’s your ideal move-out date?”
Now you can prescribe the right deal.
🧱 Deal Structure Is Like LEGOs (Not IKEA Furniture)
Every deal is a custom build. Not a prefab.
Sometimes it’s:
Sandwich Lease Option
Subject-To + Seller Carry
Option Agreement with 5% upfront
Equity split with balloon payment
You don’t choose the structure. You discover it, based on what the seller says.
🧟♂️ Structuring Blind = Creative Real Estate Malpractice
If every seller convo ends in “I’ll think about it,” you’re likely guilty of malpractice.
You're pitching before diagnosing.
You’re offering what you like, not what they need.
You’re not listening. At all.
Wanna fix that?
💼 DOCS to the Rescue
The Document Option Control System (DOCS) is your rehab center for broken structure thinking.
Instead of owning property, you control the paperwork that controls the deal.
With DOCS, you:
Make $5K–$20K per deal
Avoid risk
Never touch a hammer
And your bank account stays happy
