Quote from @James McGovern:

Can a Commercial Real Estate Agent explain why a buyer of a multifamily apartment pay high interests on a property with a current low cap rate?


 Hey James, 

There will be buyers in every market for various reasons. Based on what I have been seeing, there are lots of investors and groups with lots of cash waiting to be deployed and willing to buy properties with "high" interest rates and signifiant down payments. There are also lots of 1031 exchanges going on. Some buyers are buying with seller financing or creative financing as well. And some are simply buying and losing money day one.

In today's market, while it appears the numbers don't make sense with current interest rates, I can assure you there are still deals out there, you just have to work much harder to find them.

    I second @Samuel Eddinger. Hit up some meetups and network with local investors. Do not be too quick to jump into finding a "mentor" as real estate is very broad and there are many out there who will be quick to take your money.  Start surrounding yourself with other investors, learn what they are doing and then start honing in on what aspect of real estate you want to get into from there. Take your time and DO NOT RUSH IT! See you around.

    Hey James, it all comes down to the needs of the seller. I have seen terms that are just 1 year and terms that are 10 years. To be honest I have not seen a full 30 year seller finance term. When working with the sellers, you need to first listen to what they need vs assume. Based on their needs, you can then frame a seller finance offer that may make sense for them. Regarding interest rates, the recent seller finance deals I have seen have been slightly below market interest rates, but nothing like 3%. Hope that helps!
