Assistance Needed ASAP: Crafting an Owner Financing Proposal
BiggerPockets, I need help drafting an Owner Financing Proposal...never done it before.
Details: I have the opportunity to purchase 3 Condos in a nice complex for $105,000 total from the same owner. They agreed to owner financing along with a credit check; they want to know my terms?
My questions to you:
1. Recommended down payment? Should it be a percentage?
2. What is the going interest rate (understand it is negotiable but is it usually above conventional rate or below?)
3. Average loan term for owner financing?
4. What else should I be thinking about?
Is this offer too off?
1. $10,500 down payment (10%)
2. 5% interest rate
3. 20 year amortization schedule with option to pay it off sooner
That NETs me $364/month in positive cash flow which I'm good with (ROI = 44%)
Thanks in advance for any assistance or deals that you've done. Was thinking, should I submit two offers; higher asking price with lower interest vs lower asking price with higher interest?
Thanks
Chris
