Depends on how much cash you need.These are all pretty straight up deals, we can get wilder or more creative, depending on many factors of the multi you find.

You are telling the brokerage I am not interested in making you money but let me put your brokerage at risk trying creative type investment deals.This is exactly why I do not have agents.

In the end, it may come down to what I have heard and read several times, which is that if the seller isn't truly motivated, then these types of creative financing offers won't work.So what is "truly motivated?"

You could do it 2 ways:a) 8% interest only until you pay back the principal (depending on when you agree on a term)b) 8% amortized over a fixed term where you pay back principal and interest.There may be other creative ways to do it as well.

One creative answer is to get the contract in the name of a newly minted LLC, then sell the interest in the LLC to your cash buyer.

If you do this enough times you'll feel way more prepared in a year.

The website has opened my mind to a whole new world of creative finance in real estate as well as how to build leads to purchase property directly from sellers and avoid the MLS.  

Be the best informed and prepared and you should outperform your competitors and investors will begin seeking you out.

For example if the project is only 60% occupied and you have a clear plan to lease up to 95% then it is the way to go.In this case long term takeout financing is NOT available at 60% occupancy, therefore you have to get creative.

I'm thinking it's time for a creative real estate deal.
