@Chinku Chinku how is paying the loan balance down going to help you reach your goals?

Bank pushed us to 40% down payment so also executed a $85K seller carry-back loan to cross the finish line.

Upon further investigation, I found several more properties under similar circumstances.At first glance, it seems possible that these properties were either gifted to the nursing home by former residents or claimed as repayment for services rendered.I’m new to real estate investing, I’ve been in the education phase for the past 2-3 years.

And addressing my item #1 comment, almost always, when a "distressed" homeowner is approached, they initially are grateful to have the loan brought current, but before long they forget the circumstances they were in and you become the bad guy that stole their house.

First step for you is to study investing in income properties.Generally a rental property will have in the range of 4% -50% of rental income going toward expenses to maintain the investment before debt repayment (mortgage). 

@Summer Shelton yes, FHA loans do allow this but make sure you speak with your lender about some of the trip ups from these loans.  

Cash flow is defined as the money left over after paying for all expenses, including setting aside a certain amount to cover projected expenses like maintenance, vacancies, or capital expenditures.EXAMPLE:Property Price: $250,000Down Payment (25%): $62,500Loan Amount: $187,500Interest Rate: 6.5%Loan Term: 30 yearsMonthly Mortgage Payment: $1,185Monthly ExpensesMortgage Payment: $1,185Property Taxes: $250Insurance: $100Maintenance (10% of rent): $250Vacancy and CapEx (20% of rent): $500Rental IncomeMonthly Rent: $2,500Total Expenses: $2,285Cash FlowNet Cash Flow: $215 per month 💰However, there are many other factors to consider.

What type of loan is this?

Even 600k loan at 10% interest costs $165 a day.

Unlike refinancing, which involves taking out a new loan, recasting keeps your existing loan terms—including your interest rate and loan duration—intact.
