Hard money and seller financing

[Kris Kempe]

Hey guys,

Is it possible for a hard money lender to give you 80% of the payment when buying an investment property and then getting the seller to hold a note on that other 20%. Is that possible?

Thanks

Is it possible? Yes, Is it probable? No.

From a lenders perspective typically they want to see you put money down, otherwise you aren't putting any skin in the game.
