@Ray HarrellSellers will owner finance because (1) they will be able to sell for a higher price because they will sell to people who can’t get institutional financing, (2) they think the interest rate they receive on the money they financed, usually 6-10%, is better that the 2% bank accounts are paying (3) they get to spread out the gain on the sale of property over many years and not be bumped into a higher tax bracket immediately, or (4) they can sell the property faster as a buyer doesn’t have to wait 45 days to fulfill institutional lending requirementsBuyers may want owner financing because (1) they save the points and other fees associated with institutional financing (2) they may own the maximum number of properties financed allowable by lending institutions (3) they as full time real property investor may not be able to prove the amount of income necessary to obtain a loan (4) they may not qualify for conventional financing, only hard money, in which case owner financing may be at a much lower interest rate (5) they may have liens, judgements, etc. outstanding that make obtaining outside financing impossible, (6) they may want to close quicker than available with institutional financing.Please let me know if this makes sense

Thank you  For DSCR Loans you are going to need to be 20% down minimum, however if you can qualify with conventional or maybe some local financial institutions (or go true private money), you may be able to find a higher leverage option

Whenever I finance small commercial properties, I contact local institutions.

*I do not wish to trick my employer or any financial institution, I simply want to take advantage of the 5% multifamily down-payment and flexibility of my corporate job.

For example, I lived in the past in Arizona, so when I do my taxes I print 2 copies, and send one copy to the IRS (the Feds) and the second copy to the local IRS (the Arizona IRS, which is called Arizona Department of Revenue, if I remember correctly)Since I moved to Florida last year, my understanding I dont have to send anything to the Florida IRS (if there is an institution like that), I should only send a copy to the IRS (the Feds), correct?

But from personal experience, most institutional lenders and hard money lenders require wet signed documents (RON is not accepted).

Must keep it in a separate interest-bearing account in a California financial institution. 

Option 3 suggests having another discussion with the credit union to negotiate terms or explore alternative loan options within the institution.

That trend stopped after the 70's but manufactured housing was a major contributor towards creating stable affordable housing.If we want to tackle our housing shortage we need to get serious about it.Here is a quick summary of the HUD changes: HUD Actions for Manufactured Homes and Communities:HUD announces a comprehensive set of actions to increase availability and affordability of manufactured homes.These actions are part of the Biden-Harris Administration's Housing Supply Action Plan.Manufactured housing is a key component in the strategy to boost housing supply and reduce costs.Preservation and Reinvestment Initiative for Community Enhancement (PRICE) Program:HUD launches the PRICE Program, a $225 million competitive grant opportunity.The program aims to preserve and revitalize manufactured housing and communities.Funding supports repairs, rehabilitation, replacement of units, infrastructure upgrades, and community resilience.Available to states, local jurisdictions, tribes, nonprofits, community development finance institutions, and other eligible entities.FHA Draft Policy for Manufactured Home Communities:FHA posts a draft policy to solicit public feedback.The policy aims to promote stability and affordability for individuals and families in existing manufactured home communities.Allows resident-owned cooperatives and mission-oriented borrowers to access FHA-insured financing for purchasing or refinancing.Updates to FHA's Title I Manufactured Home Loan Program:HUD announces updates to FHA's Title I Manufactured Home Loan Program.New methodologies for calculating loan limits to align with current market pricing.Expects the new loan limits to incentivize more lenders to participate and expand program usage by buyers of manufactured housing.Annual Recalculation of Title I Loan Program Limits:FHA will recalculate Title I loan limits annually to keep pace with home price changes over time.This ensures that the loan limits remain aligned with market conditions.Ginnie Mae's Title I Loan Securitization Program:Ginnie Mae takes steps to reinvigorate its Title I Loan Securitization program.Revisions to financial eligibility requirements for Title I Issuers to reduce barriers and increase lender participation.HUD's Ongoing Support for Manufactured Housing:These actions build on HUD's continuous efforts to support manufactured housing.Earlier actions include a proposed rule for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program emphasizing the needs of manufactured housing communities.Recent Updates to CDBG Notice:HUD updated the CDBG in Support of Housing Activities notice to allow the use of funds for acquisition of manufactured housing units, services to homeowners, and investments in infrastructure and resilience for manufactured housing communities.

Pay a large some of money to an institution to teach us "skills" to make us be better candidates for the work force....However, instead of being over 100k+ in debt after your 4 year investment, with no job lined up to pay off your education bill....in Flipsystem you are paying off your "tuition" as you go.
