How would you finance this package of rental properties?

[Zachary Hayes]

While diving for deals I stumbled across an investor who was offloading his properties. They are all single-family homes and I'm very interested in the area surrounding them. I just used up a majority of my capital on a local DuPlex that I will be house hacking, so the funds to purchase these properties are basically non-existent. I don't want this opportunity to be passed up, so what creative ways would you use in order to get this deal funded?

Do seller financing with an 18 month balloon. After 12 months of ownership, refinance and pay him back.  Pay him a premium for doing the seller financing with little to no money down and give him a decent interest rate, more than he would get if he invested in something else.
