Could have 6-12months mortgage supply in Escrow. 

If I don’t make improvements / pay rent in the first year you’re covered to an extent. 

If I had $100k -$200k liquid assets I’d run this business plan without an investor. 

Hello,


I’m Sam a Licensed Contractor in San Diego, CA. I’m looking for a business partner/ investor to invest on what could be a great mutual deal between an investor / contractor business relationship.

So, here’s the outline:

The investor would purchase the agreed upon property with down payment.

Me, as the contractor will be your tenant, paying the mortgage and live in the property (if being held for 2 years) - TAX FREE investment property once sold. OR, if less than a year (quick flip) holding costs can be split or funded.

If we went the 2 year route I would essentially be covering the “holding costs” and making the mortgage payments paying towards principal.

As the contractor I will be responsible for upgrading and fixing up the property. New Bathrooms, New Kitchen, Flooring, Paint, Roofing, anything and everything to get the property to top dollar selling price.


Property Sells:

Investor - Receives their principal Down Payment back , Receives % of Proceeds from Sale

Me, Contractor - Receives their principal Holding Cost payments , Receives % of Proceeds from Sale

This is the general idea, the details would have to be in further discussion. I believe the 2 year route could be a great move (long term but not really that long). Over 2 years housing market rises, plus the correct improvements and a right buy in the San Diego market.

*On a flip property ranging from $500,000-$850,000.

A 2 year play could net anywhere from $200,000-$450,000.

We both make profits from this deal with no hard money lender %’s calculated into the hold/ flip.
