Seller Financing Deals

[Sam Clemente]

Hey BP,

I found a vacant property I would like to seller finance into apartments. It is abandoned and definitely needs some renovating before anything else so I am really just wondering where to start after I figure out how much everything is going to cost after doing all the underwriting. I know someone who owns an apartment complex across the street, so I know the area is safe.

Do I have to get it under contract first? 

When should I start reaching out to investors? - How do I go about finding them?

I would like to try and put little to no money down because I am young and don't have hundreds of thousands of dollars but am open to hearing about other creative financing strategies

Thank you!
