Seller Financing Proposal
Hi All! I’m new to Rehabbing and trying to get creative with finding deals and funding them with OPM that are worth the cost of funds. I’m about to make a proposal for Owner Financing but I’m not sure that I have all my bases covered. Please share any tips or advice that you might have!
Deal Basics:
Purchase Price: $150,000
ARV: $310,000
Rehab estimate: $80,000
I’m thinking to offer the Seller $75k down payment, and he finances the other $75k, interest only for 6 months. Standard P&I payments after 6 months, with a balloon at 18 months (so he can get out).
I plan to get Hard Money for the $75k down payment and $80k rehab costs and estimate the project to take 6 months to finish & sell.
I’d be all-in for about $245-250k after 6 months holding costs. My backup would be to refi & rent if needed as this is in a desirable part of town.
Are there any gaping holes in this idea? Anything I need to consider?
Thanks and I appreciate the feedback!
