Hey BP!

I have a deal that seller will agree to hold a note at 4-5% interest on a duplex(one unit vacant and other unit is efficiency at $325/m) that they own outright. Plan on giving 10k down, then doing roughly 1000/m after that till Purchase Price is paid off, roughly 180-200k, so around a 15 yr note. The property will be able to do $1,700 and $1,000 once furnished and updated. My question is what is the best way to fund this deal if we're going zero out of pocket. We would then need cash for transfer taxes and cosmetic updates to the building. Ideally my partner and I want to be zero out of pocket. Plan on turning it into 2 MTRs for a long term hold.

Should we go to PMLs and ask for 45k?

Should we get a Credit Union?

What are some other solutions / recommendations BP has.

All the best,

Macen

 I am not familiar with any PML that will do $45k with no skin in the game. Its too low for them even on originating the documents and without skin in the game I would view it as way to risky. I would rather lend to someone with 600 credit and 30% skin in the game than someone with 800 credit and no skin.

     What if the deal was a 'wedge' buy and PML took a position on the property?

     Finalized the negations with the seller, agreed to no interest on the loan, principle only. 190k Loan amount, 15 year term, 1,055.56/m.

     Hi Macen:  congratulations on those great terms!  Just curious how much you put down, and if you reached any conclusions about how to fund this deal without using your own funds.

     Sure! Our down-payment will be 10k-12,777.69. We secured a PML for a 3yr term at 10% interest only.
