$30K financing or pay in cash?

[Austin Nelson]

Looked at my first deal today. My offer for the single family house is $30K. I am trying to finance it but having trouble finding lenders willing to do it for that low. The ones that do have closing costs that are in the $5K range. It will put me strapped for cash for a month or two but is it worth just paying in cash to avoid the costs? Plus may be a selling incentive for the owner?
