Down Payment Strategies
As a real estate investor, obtaining a down payment can be a significant challenge, particularly for those new to the field. To assist investors in understanding their options, I propose creating a comprehensive guide to down payment strategies. The following are some methods I am aware of, but I welcome any additional suggestions.
Down Payment Strategies:
- Home Equity
- 401(k) or Roth IRA
- Investment accounts
- Owner Financing
- Partnerships
- Private Loans
- Wholesaling Properties to Other Investors
- Gap Funding
- Credit Cards and Business Lines of Credit
- Cross-Collateralization
