I need to buy this house

Hey I’m desperate to buy the house I am currently living in. A guy rented it to me and gave me a purchase agreement I have not signed because I can’t get approval for a loan. It’s worth way more than he is selling it to me for . What options do I have as first time home buyer or a private mortgage?!

Talk to 20 lenders today and find a way! Happy to provide a great lender recommendation if you need.

If you're really not financeable, find someone in your world that you can create a win-win scenario with to allow you to get the home. Lots of ways to make it a win-win, but make sure it's someone you trust and you set up a proper agreement.
