Hey @Dre N @Jobi Samuel
There are some companies and individuals that will lend money short term. Depends most on the value proposition and the location. You don't have to have any experience but it helps if you do.
Do you have a property under contract, and if so, where? I may be able to refer you to someone who can help.
Best of luck!

Hey @Anders Nordberg !
As we head into the winter (though it doesn't feel like it here!)... I would suggest two things:
1). Drop the price a bit
2) Offer a non-standard lease term (that is offer the lease for say, 8 months, then the annual renewal. This doesn't work in an HOA community but I don't think that applies to yours, right?
There are some folks looking for a "short-er term" rental. If you play it right, you could have some flexibility and hold your pricing too.
I have gotten a few inquiries lately about these types of situations.
Also, maybe review the marketing you have done and see if there is anything you can do better (description, pictures, brochure, targeted audience, etc ).
Good luck, you will fill it!

Post: Selling & Lending to foreign nationals

Hi BP.
I have a client who is selling their house (conventionally, not as a rent-to-own or seller financed). I was approached out the seller doing owner financing (thus becoming a lender) on a house in which the buyer would be a foreign national. The buyer is out of country and intends to rent the house. The buyer apparently has a very large down payment.
Any thoughts on this? Have any of you doing any similar deals?
Thanks,
Dave

Looking to an attorney to review a document. It's a Note JV agreement. Recommendations?
Note is in Indiana, in case that matters.
Thanks in advance.
