Invest in Real Estate with No Money Down
Are you interested in real estate investing but lack the necessary funds? Here’s a strategy you can explore, provided the property seller is open to negotiation. Although not every seller will be interested or understand this approach, you're most likely to succeed when the owner is eager to sell due to reasons like relocation, divorce, or tenant-related issues.
If you're currently renting, consider discussing this idea with your landlord. Some variations of this technique might fit their needs. Evaluate whether they want the market price or just a quick exit from monthly payments, possibly due to foreclosure risks.
Assumable Mortgages
A straightforward tactic is to assume the seller’s mortgage. By taking over their payments, you can step into their shoes financially. For this, lender approval is necessary. If that’s not possible, consider a "subject to" arrangement?"continue making payments while the property remains under the seller's name.
Creating a Second Mortgage
In addition to assuming their mortgage, you could establish a second mortgage with the seller for the remaining cost. Offer them a high interest-only payment for a short term, such as 2 to 3 years. This way, they earn a good return during this period, with a final lump sum due at the end.
When the term concludes, options include refinancing or selling the property. Typically, the property's value will have appreciated, enabling these strategies.
Engaging Financial Lenders
Most lenders are primarily interested in a safe investment. While local banks might be hesitant, other financial institutions are often keen. Mortgages are usually based on 60-70% of the property value. These financiers focus on the asset’s value rather than your income, as they are assured of recovering their investment through the property value in case of default.
Wrap up the transaction with a second mortgage with the seller. Should you default, they retain the right to foreclose and sell, settling the original mortgage with the proceeds.
Conclusion
When both seller and buyer collaborate, it provides a win-win scenario. Sellers eager to move quickly can still get their asking price if they allow some flexibility in the process.
