So many people love rental properties and even though I like the monthly income I don't like being bothered with the overhead. When I think about after you pay the mortgage, insurance, taxes, plus maintenance you have little left, unless you have a muiltiunit and even still you have to deal with screening tenants, repairs, complaints, etc. So I came up with a plan and this may not work for everyone. So for example, I have a contract on a single family home for $6,500 and close in 30 days and I already have a candidate for sale. So I buy the property for $6,500 and then put it up for sale with lease/option to buy for $19,000 bad credit no problem. I have someone already interested so the deal is that I get $5,000 down and $1,000 a month for the remainder balance of $14,000 for 14 months. The trick is I recouped most of my money of front, I did nothing to the property, and I'm collecting $1,000 a month. Buyer is responsible for everything, repairs, taxes, insurance, bills, everything and it's a part of the contract to keep everything current and in good standing including building codes and or violations which must be done in an orderly fashion. After a years time I will have maybe 5 to 7 more properties collecting a total of 6 to 8 grand month plus I haven't really spent anything because after every sale 2 to 3 months later I recoup my money on every deal. I target distressed neighborhoods where I can find good deals and sell them on contract helping someone become a property owner who probably has no other means of doing so or just appreciate the process being less frightening than the traditional banks.
