At first glance, I would make sure my end buyer has at least $5k. I would only grant an end buyer a lease with option, not an owner finance. The SAFE act and Dodd-Frank rules scare me financing the owner-occ. I don't touch those anymore.
I would buy sub2, then lease option to my end buyer. Their $5k is option consideration. The word 'down payment' would not be mentioned. Ever. Good luck @Rae Remer!
