New Investor - No Money, but have a deal
Hey everyone,
I'm new to real estate investing, and I came across a potential flip opportunity in San Diego, CA, that may yield a potential profit of $100,000-200,000. I need some help though.
Here are the high-level details:
- 5br/4ba - 4100 square feet - indoor pool/sauna/gym etc - 3 fire places - on a lake - appraised at $750,000-800,000.
- the house is nearing foreclosure, but can be purchased for $550,000 from owner (personal friend).
- needs $50,000-100,000 in renovations.
- I live in San Francisco, but family and all connections in San Diego.
- I'm a real estate agent part of my family owned real estate office in San Diego.
Questions:
- I have no money to invest in the property, but would like to work with an investor to assist with the flip. What is the process for taking out a loan using investor money? Will I be responsible for taking out a loan if the investor puts 20% down?
- for a potential profit of $100,000-200,000, what is a typical split for an investor?
- is there any advice/information that would be helpful to gather prior to pitching the deal to an investor?
Thank you so much for your help - I'm looking forward to having a very successful first deal!
