Want owner financing up to 50k money down Philadelphia area
I am new to real estate investing and have approx $200k liquid to begin. I am not eligible for a conventional loan as I am working for a start-up company and will not be approved for a mortgage.
My thinking is to seek owner financing,negotiate mortgage directly with owner, and put up to 50k down for first property.
Am I going in the right direction seeking financing directly with owner or do I have any other options in my current position? I am avoiding purchasing a property 100% cash as I don't want to tie up all of my capital.
Please let me know of any comments or suggestions,
Thank you for your time,
Edwin

Your plan makes sense.
I'm assuming you're looking to buy and hold and not for a single family primary residence...
You should also consider that buying with cash will then give you options later to refinance to pull 60-75% out once the property is stabilized and generating income.
