Creative Financing


innovative home-financing arrangements that help sell a property Innovative home-financing arrangements that help sell a property defines Creative Financing. Do creative financing techniques really work? They have probably have all worked somewhere for someone at least once. The point isn't if they will all work for you. The point is to know what is possible, so you can find your own creative ways to invest in real estate. Below are several creative financing methods.

Land contracts are a great way to purchase real estate and without using a mortgage company. They are sometimes called "contract for sale". This means the seller lets you make payments, and delivers the title upon payment in full. Sometimes sellers will do this because they can charge a higher interest, and higher price.

You can also finance a Menifee Lakes real estate transaction using hard money lenders. They specialize in short-term loans at high interest. You typically use this type of financing for real estate you are going to purchase and sell quickly such as a fixer-upper. Often, you can get the money fast. The interest rate might be higher than a typical mortgage company but buyers who use this method normally don't keep the property for a long time and are hoping to turn a quick profit.

Friends and family are a great way to finance Menifee Lakes real estate if you make sure to keep it all business.

Another method of creative financing are No-doc and low-doc loans. No (or low) documentation of your income or credit required. Again, you can find banks that do these online now. The catch is that you will only be able to borrow up to 80% of the purchase price or property value. If you have 10% in cash, you might be able to borrow the other 10% from a friend or the seller.

finance a real estate transaction using hard money lendersSeller-carried second mortgages. Sometimes a bank will loan you 90%, and allow the seller to take back a second mortgage from you for 5%, leaving you needing only 5% for a downpayment.

Note Menifee Lakes real estate buyers. The seller needs cash. He raises the price, and sells to you for $100,000 with no money down, taking back two mortgages from you for $90,000 and $10,000. He arranged (or you did) for a note buyer to pay him $80,000 cash for the first mortgage at closing, getting him the cash he wanted. You pay two payments now, one to each note holder.

Get a loan on other property. Interestingly, if you take out a home equity loan for a vacation, and then forget to use it for that, you can use it for the downpayment on an investment property, without violating the rules of the bank that gives you the primary mortgage. In other words, you got in with no cash of your own.

Partnerships. For bigger projects, you could arrange for five investors to each put money into a partnership, with your share being the management responsibility instead of cash.

As you can see, creative financing when buying Menifee Lakes real estate comes in many shapes and forms. Try innovative home financing arrangements, land contracts, partnerships and friends and family. You'll be in a Menifee Lakes area home before you know it!
