Inquiring about creative funding
Good evening BP,
I have been on the hunt and saw numerous properties in the last few weeks. I am interested in 4 duplexes that are being sold as a group for $349,000 with each rented at $450. I currently have a little less than 25% of the down payment if I use conventional funding. Any advice form the group on creative funding will be greatly appreciated, thanks.

At 450 a unit that’s 1800 per month. A mortgage if 261,750 (25% down) at 5% is $1530 without taxes, insurance, property management, vacancy, maintenance, capex, etc. I think you will be negative Cashflow unless you get a great discount. No rehab number either.
Private lender could come and help fund, but I would look at this as a bad deal.
Be careful.
