Edward Johnson The Stack Method
11 February 2026 | 12 replies
If you're an investor or wholesaler running into dead ends due to down payment gaps or tight lending terms, you need to know about the Stack Method—a powerful and creative funding strategy that helps close more deals with less capital.🔑 How it works:The buyer uses a DSCR loan as the primary financing tool (65–75% LTV).The seller carries back the down payment as a 2nd-position lien, preserving their equity and deferring taxes.A transactional lender covers the temporary funding gap to ensure a seamless double close or to facilitate acquisition.✅ Benefits:No need to bring in cash for the down paymentSeller gets long-term returns and capital gains tax advantagesBuyer acquires a cash-flowing asset with minimal out-of-pocket investmentWorks for SFR, multifamily, land, and even self-storageThis method is especially effective when there's strong equity and a motivated seller willing to be flexible.
