I have been told to stay away from lease options in Texas.

I find this option best if you are on a tight time frame and need to save a couple of weeks.  

Hi hive,I am new to investing and trying to learn from the different options out there.

Since you want to aggressively invest in the near future, you will need cash and the 30 year option is the right one for you.

But you have a few different options.

I do single family "off market" that I take over with owner financing, subject to, wraps and lease options.

I wish the appointment was with him... its with an attorney at his firm, hopefully this attorney has a lot of experience and gives we several legal options... not another sales pitch. 

The “borrower” would have an option to buy back the property if (1) all lease payments (“mortgage payments”) have been made and the borrower/seller pays is the sale price/loan amount in full at the time the option period/note matures.  

I'm an investor and mortgage broker and have options for loans that go as low as $75,000 and down payments as low as 15%, which makes it easier to stay above $75,000.

Financing options do exist: hard money loans, renovation loans, and some traditional mortgages can be used on distressed properties if criteria are met.
