But as it relates to being a mortgage holder how do I decide when the buyer has enough skin in the game? 

Hello bp, I'm working on a commercial project in NC for a Home Health Care Business seeking a 2nd lien holder position.

Back in 2008-2010 I had weekly conversations with ballooning loan holders that often ended in tears.  

Also, since there are state and federal rules about the terms you can use when originating a loan, I wonder if note holders also take on some new roles or obligations.

However, when you apply for a new mortgage the lender will have you fill out a Schedule of Real Estate Owned form that basically asks about any properties you already own along with any lien holders on those properties, balances owed, monthly payment amounts, etc (see below for what one of these forms looks like).  

But if you have cash, I would look at being the money partner and do some joint ventures with some experienced flippers or maybe even lending as a second mortgage holder.

I’ve been a 8+ year card holder, with great credit and a decent line amount.

Seller financing would require them to be able to have enough to pay off the mortgage that they are delinquent to their mortgage holder, and then accept payments from you on the property.

When I have decided not to renovate bathrooms, I did decide to repaint and replace the light fixtures, TP holder, towel bars, etc.
