If you are unable to find bank financing you should be in a strong position to structure a deal that would be attractive to a private lender.

You are looking to buy an owner occupied residence and you can buy a distressed property (bank repo, not necessarily a fixer upper) which is usually a fair amount below retail value ahead of investors with very attractive financing terms.

I have had deals like this in the past, but the monthly positive cash flow wasn't as attractive as this.

As the majority of net lease participants expect cap rates to decline further in 2013, properties with long term leases will be more difficult to find as many current owners will hold given the attractive refinance rates available.

I do know from talking with many VP's at banks for commercial loans that for residential or other types there are many banks with crud on the books.With regulators breathing down their necks the last thing they want to do is take an oddball loan to the bank committee to vote on.

I think it's the price attracting lots of people, plus this unit is available at the end of the month so lots of people are getting ready to move.

The end buyer would likely be a speculator, so I knew I had to get the property under contract at a number that would immediately be attractive to a speculative investor.

I was carrying a Beretta 9000S, which I still have, but that extra 5 rounds in the Glock and the simplicity of the gun are very attractive for a carry gun.

Buy distressed properties at an attractive price.2.
