Best strategy for Master Lease Option?
BP! It's been a while! I figured while I'm waiting to get a root canal I could make some use of the time to ask a question. I just had a short conversation with a seller who's been living in a 4-plex for almost 15 years. All the rooms are rented out. Some value add in reducing expenses but the property appears turn key.
Since I don't have a lot of the down payment and I was just shooting a flyer out, I asked about seller financing or an MLO. The seller is interested in that since she's moving out of the country.
Gross monthly income is about $4000
Asking about $360000
It was purchased 15 years ago for $155000 but I suspect she refinanced to do some updates.
Seller wants some cash and to finance her move and doesn't want to deal with a property manager or the property once gone.
Assuming I have less than $20k to put towards deal, what's the best way for me to acquire this property with cash flow? Any unique ways to structure? What sort of questions should I ask them? Any way I could get her to seller finance or pull a win win out of this?
Property located in Baltimore City in NW facing a lake.
All inputs appreciated!
