Many buyers/investors are using this strategy to invest in real estate.- get into real estate with a lower rate and lesser percentage down payment.

Many prospective buyers don’t want to pay large mortgage payments on a home listed at market value and they know enough about home renovations that they can rehab it themselves and have exactly what they want in a home and can have a small payment on it if it is purchased this way. 

You can reevaluate selling in a few years when interest rates improve and more buyers get into the market

Coupled with tailored marketing efforts, these enhancements attracted buyers and significantly increased the property’s profitability.

The first international route from Houston to our local airport opens in April of next year, so we're going to heavily target US buyers.

just really disappointing that the loan officer knew we wanted to rent it out and when the real estate savvy guy wasn't there, made the other buyer sign something preventing that. 

What are they suggesting you off the buyer’s brokers, another 4-6%?  

@Matthew BrownYou can find real estate agents and cash buyers on Propstream and I believe you can pul 10,000 contacts per month.

I am seeing some AMAZING deals in Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge as well as the Blue ridge are of N Ga that are HUGE equity gains because prices are lower in this buyers market and also cash flowing much better than last year.

So when we had this property under contract for $92k ($95k purchase price with 3% buyer commission credit because I'm a licensed agent), it was an amazing deal.
