Owner Financing of 2nd Home/vacation rental
Hello,
I have been in market for condo in a particular resort style community. I found someone who is selling and can probably handle owner financing. I do have down payment but I really need to get primary home refinanced and get the great deal of equity out of it to buy this 2nd condo free and clear. I don't want to lose this deal as this will be my 2nd home / income property as vacation rental. Here my questions
- I know I will have issues getting refinance for primary property if the see this owner finning taking place. Not sure how to handle this. Any suggestions
- I have a feeling he owns this condo free and clear or at least very low loan amt. I feel confident he will do owner financing if I approach it right. Not sure how to go about and terms to offer. I am in position to put down 10-20% and pay cash in full with in year. But not sure that is a good approach and would prefer not to tie up all my money in one property.
- What about interest? How is that handled if owner financed for least financed, say a year?
- I really want to put my best foot forward but would also like to try and get some ROI if decide to sell in year or so or get refinancing. Please give me a best case scenario for Him and another best cash scenario for me. So I can get an idea on what to offer him.
- I know I will be paying near retail as it is on way up and potential for high income producing property as a very successful resort community and town. I may even consider over paying just to get it furnished... etc..
Thanks for the help in helping me thing through these things.
