Over the last few years we have developed a strategy to privately finance home owners who are unable to purchase a home due to low credit.We run our loans through a licensed mortgage lender for underwriting and compliance purposes, advertise the home owner must have at least 12% cash for the down payment, and then acquire the property with our bank, and then turn around and sell the property back to the home owner at a 5% mark-up.Our interest rates are around 10%, and our goal is to take this strategy across the nation using investor capital to front any shortage in down payment money.What has your experience been with private financing?
