I have used Hero mortgage for a portfolio of houses in Texas and a STR purchase in FL.  

Last week I made a post about getting a US mortgage as a US citizen who lives abroad (https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/49/topics/1219693-getti...).

If you sell property 1 you’re basically paying off a 3% mortgage.

Our customers typically get a 30 year fixed mortgage with a 20-25% down payment.

None of these originators are allowed to assess you as a higher risk because you paid off a mortgage early. 

How can you find out if an existing mortgage is assumable?

I'm perusing through some online listings for multifamily in my area.

.- Now Foreclosures may be a good discount but at the same time I already know that there is aLOT more risk to this.I already have a real estate agent, a mortgage broker, and am getting connections to contractors and so forth.My few Questions are:- Do I need a real estate agent in this process for foreclosures?

Hi fellow investors,I have several owner-financed mortgages in my portfolio with interest rates of 10% and higher.

But you have to understand the seller is taking on a significant risk of having someone else run the property and not knowing if they will get the final payout.If you are getting typical rates, why would you not just buy the property outright with 20% down and obtain mortgage financing from a lender?
