Using a private investor to purchase real estate
So I'm new to the REI world, I have done researches over time on different strategies to get my first investment property started. I've been blessed with finding a private investor to purchase the property and put up the rehab cost only charging 2% interest on the back end. An 870 sqft house fell in my lap at a low cost. I've been dealing with the owner for two months trying to get everything figured out. I also spent the same amount of time trying to get everything figured out with my investor to have her lawyer draw up a contract on the borrow money. Well I had found out this week after talking to the security & title company that the home owner name is on the lease with her husband but her husband did not leave a will. She agreed to drop the price by 5k if I cover the heir affidavit and closing cost. How can I implement this in the contract? And which route am I needing to take? Is this something worth doing or running from? And last will doing the heir affidavit take up too much time that it might scare my investor away?
