I'm looking for a HM Lender who offers a program that allows monthly payments.

Example: I buy a home cash using a hard money loan, and then lease the home. I pay off the lender in monthly payments.

Does that exsist? I'm interested only in the HM lenders who are not based on credit.

I'm in Texas, by the way

I may not be asking this correctly, but I want to know if there is a way for an investor to pay the outstanding balance owed on a pre foreclosure and get some sort of ownership of the home and lease to the homeowner who is in default for a certain period of time, then resell to them once their situation has improved?

If so, how can it be done, and generally how long is the process?

I received an interesting call today from someone responding to my first batch of letters sent as a RE Investor :wink:. The home is going to be sold at foreclosure auction soon, and the homeowner chose bankruptcy as her option. My letter happened to outline all of her options (highlighting selling her home quickly to me) and she realized that she'd jumped the gun by choosing bankruptcy. She said she just paid $100 to get started and the process (which I'm not familiar with) is just beginning.

My question is, is it still possible for her to sell her home now?

If so, this leads to my next question. She owes more than her home is worth as a result of a 80/20 loan, I read somewhere that there are options for investors to successfully invest in homes such as these, however, I can't quite remember where I saw it. I didn't pay much attention to it, because my main objective as a wholesaler is to stick to obviously profitable properties (as a newbie) but perhaps some other seasoned vet investor might have a suggestion.

Time is of the essence here, anything I can do?
