The Money making opportunity

Build wealth in real estate is  the objective,  buying  cheap house, fix  and put back in the market as quick possible.  but there are some considerations and rules to follow to  investment in real estate.
If the prospect buyers for your house need financing trough the bank (most buyers need it) the banks ask for several conditions to investors to avoid one conditions that banks call "Flipping"

  • The investor need to own the house for a minimum of 3 months and some times more
  • Investor need to justify the markup on the price of the house showing the improvements and how much money he put on the house
  • House need to be livable, in other words must be ready to be occupied with flooring, no broken windows, no broken walls, and in general must be in good shape.
  • House can be sold at no more of the bank appraisal value. Consult your (Realtor expert)
What investor can do to sell the house at the next day?
Investor that want to sell the house quick here is one solution. Seller financing. This option give the next benefits:
  • you recover the 10% of the property price upfront
  • The interest rate is attractive for investors (10% to 12%)
  • Price is no subject to appraisal value
  • You can sell the house in any conditions
  • you can sell the same day you bought the house
  • Buyer don't need to qualify
  • You can close in 1 week or les
  • Closing cost are low (for buyer and seller)
  • You can create a balloon note and estipulate the time you are willing to keep the note, and then buyer need to get the money and pay the remaining balance in full (refinance in x number of years with a bank)
Sellers finance is a good option and is relative safe for the investor, if buyer don't pay, is easy to foreclosure the property. You have double earnings, the added value and the interest (no any bank investment pay more). The only risk you could have is if you need to foreclosure  the house (buyers stop paying) and the buyer can try to damage the property in revenge, but you keep the down payment and possible improvement that the buyer made to the property.
