Cash and then Finance?

Posted

I am in the process of picking up my first few investment properties. My question is this. Is there any advantage/disadvantage to buying a house all cash and then financing after. I realize the advantage on the better offer to seller side, more interested in the financing side. I am approved for commercial loans, that's not the issue. I have the cash to front on a few properties at a time but definitely want to have them financed in a reasonable amount of time for the sake of leverage. So in short, is this even an option, will it save me or cost me in the end? Thanks everyone!

@Andrew Syrios you kind of read my mind on that. I do want volume increase but I am starting out with a set amount of out of pocket capital. I was hoping I could buy under value with cash, then cash out, thus not tie up as much of my capital in every deal (80/20). So my best option would probably be to finance and try to refi some equity out as soon as possible?  Thanks!
