The trick is to present the offer to the seller properly since many of them may have never considered financing the sale. There is one possible down side. That is that a seller may not be as inclined to part with the property at the lowest possible price under these terms. There are other options, such as offering the seller the possibility of selling their note to some of our investors or structuring the deal by obtaining financing from any of the dozens of hard money lenders with whom we work. With a 50% down payment, it may be possible to acquire te property without getting the seller involved in the financing and therefore enable us to negotiate a purchase at a lower price and maybe even lower interest rates resulting in a lower total cost for the investment. Feel free to contact me if you would like additional information.Tue, 01 Sep 2009 21:42:41 -0700http://www.trulia.com/voices/profile/Real_Estate_Pro-Miami_Beach_FL-86075/http://www.trulia.com/voices/profile/Real_Estate_Pro-Miami_Beach_FL-86075/There are several nice options in Aventura; One Island Place, The Point, Porto Vita, The Hamptons, Williams Island, The Waterways, etc. With 40-50% down... there are many sellers with equity that will take aserious consideration to your offer.
