Unfamiliar territory on a deal and i need help.
Hey all, I'm new to real estate investing but have been working really hard to get educated and get my first deal. I've seen a few sellers but haven't ran across any that are willing to part with their property at my price. However I am currently working with a buyer that to me the circumstances and numbers don't work but i wanted to make sure there is nothing that i can do. I got a call from a lady who is currently in a preforeclose and wants to sell her property fast. But she has exhausted all her options.
The property is a Single family in a very desired area by a lake.
Property value is 400K
Property Balance w/ lender 280-300k
HUD partial Claim Balance 98k
I need help with this and not sure what i can do if anything. The lady really at this point really just wants to get out. I'm not a realtor and have no interest in moving in the home. What are some things i can do with this deal or ways to structure it? By the way the owner has 20 days to do something before the property is auctioned off in foreclosure.
