Seller finances the down for FHA ??
Hi All, I am trying to structure a deal in my town to get started in REI. My question is would the banker go for a seller financing the 3.5 % down and going FHA for the rest. I am wanting to buy a duplex one side is already rented. This should cover the FHA loan. Owner is asking $120,000 for the property. We are prepared to offer the seller 8% on $4,200 paying off in 9 months. My question is...Is this a doable proposition? Will the Mortgage co go for it? Is it legal? What are the issues with my thinking? Thanks for the help. Dennis
