Three Ways to Purchase Property
If you're ready to dive into real estate but unsure about how to purchase property, you're in the right place. There are numerous methods to acquire property, and here are three effective ones to get you started.
Partner to Purchase Property
Consider partnering with others to purchase property. Start by joining a local real estate investing group in your area. These groups often hold monthly meetings where attendees share opportunities and needs during a segment called "I have / I want."
For instance, if someone is looking for partners, you can offer assistance by putting up the down payment or arranging financing. I once attended a meeting, announced my interest, and within three days, connected with a couple who needed a partner to supply funds for a rehabilitation project. If you can’t find a nearby group, consider starting one yourself.
The Two-Note Technique
This creative strategy involves making a slightly higher offer on a property and leveraging seller financing. Suppose a property's asking price is $350,000, and the seller expects to accept around $340,000. You might offer $360,000, creating two mortgage notes: one for $300,000 and another for $60,000.
The seller's need for immediate cash can be met by selling the second note for, say, $45,000. This arrangement provides the seller with cash upfront and regular monthly payments, while you manage to purchase property with little or no down payment. Note that various factors like interest rates and your credit score will influence how such deals are structured.
No-Doc Loans
No-documentation loans, or "no-doc" loans, focus on your credit score and the property rather than verifying employment or income details. These loans can offer up to 95% financing, making them appealing if you lack traditional income documentation.
However, watch out for higher interest rates. If you’re purchasing a fixer-upper with plans to sell quickly, the extra interest might be negligible given the potential profit. But for long-term ownership, the additional cost can accumulate significantly. Usually, these loans have interest rates about 2% higher than conventional ones.
Final Thoughts
No single method suits every scenario. It's essential to familiarize yourself with various strategies to purchase property effectively. By understanding different approaches, you can find the right fit for your specific situation and goals.
