Securities and Exchange Commission in January, the company’s real estate business lost $1.12 million, although the firm had relatively little debt compared with the stated value of its assets.The company also disclosed that it may use new investors’ money to pay dividends to existing ones.

People carry too much debt and even if the debt was forgiven or paid off, incomes don't match affordability. 

The only thing that I see missing if they are purchasing with hard money debt they may want to factor in 3% - 5% for closing costs (points, fees, title, etc) Thx Zachary!

Solo 401(k)s are not subject to UDFI (Unrelated Debt-Financed Income) on the capital gains from selling a debt-financed property, per IRS rules.b.

All of them have enthusiastic investor bases, so they rarely need to reach out beyond that to fund their deals.

Quote from @Eamon Conheady: I was purchasing a multi family through an IRA LLC and was utilizing debt to finance it, requiring a non-recourse loan.

Hey Jason - if it's a 1-4 unit, you would need to value it based off the sales comp approach (assuming the buyer is using debt financing).

Consider lease optioning the “now keeper” and walking the created debt forward if you lease option buyer can cash you out. 

The seller will also have to sign documents that are required and it will hold them liable for debts since they are on title.Best way to set that up is run the numbers and create a partnership based on the equity of the land and your cash injection and sweat equity.

Like maybe I could pull enough out from heloc on primary residence to pay off debt and then rent out my primary and use the extra cash to payoff heloc and then do another heloc once the original one is paid off.
