Name that structure
How could I structure this? would it be a job for JV subject to or lease option?
I have a property assessed at 2.8 million I want to develop.Please note: This is commercial land.
I offer 1.6. I agree to purchase at this price only if seller will lend 1.2 million in private money after closing.
I pay seller (read title) 1.6 million.
We close
He loans me 1.2 million @ 8% to be paid in 5 years (I want this secured by the property what do I use for this - deed of trust?)
This will be used to develop phase 1 of development with a margin of safety.
If this is not the way to structure this what would be?
I will pay the seller more than their asking price to motivate doing things creatively. The seller wants the property back because it would be cashflowing vs. undeveloped. I will be using a realestate savvy lawyer to run this by I want to know the structure so I don’t waste time / sanity.
