Need advise on how to come up with payment for 2nd investment
It always happens that the perfect deal just pops up when the finances are not there.
180k for two family house. Estate sale
I own my primary residence with my father as cosigner. From this house I Took 50k HELOC to buy my first 2 family investment house at 235k.
The rent from this property pays the mortgage, taxes and insurance at 1640. Plus 380 for the heloc payment. I pay water usually around 80. Then I maintain the landscaping since I only have one rental. Both units are rented out at a total of $2700. $600 left to play with. I had put down 25%. This deal happened this past December.
The new property is @180k. What are my options to come up with funds? Can I buy as owner occupied and move out my current residence and live there for a year? This property needs about 25k of rehab. But the location is very great. It would easily appraise at north of $260k after the work done. Any insight is appreciated on what my options can be. The sellers have out it at a price that it will be gone immediately.
Thank you
Sunny
