This is in-line with the wise old real estate adage of “Marry the house, date the rate.”2.

Never assume nothing in life let alone real estate.

I am new here in Bigger Pockets and I purchased a rental property in San Antonio, Texas back in 2019 with little knowledge back then, in real estate.

Hello everyone,I’m Alex Marti, a commercial real estate agent with a passion for investment opportunities.

Most “Gurus”, authors, advisors and experienced real estate investors preach obtaining seller “carry back” financing for property buyers in order to (1) obtain financing when they don’t qualify for a 3rd party loan (2) obtain financing when the property doesn’t qualify for financing and or (3) extend the “buying power” of their capital contribution (down payment) to purchase a larger more expensive property by having the seller provide a subordinated mortgage loan.That’s all and good, but why should the seller agree to finance the purchase of his property, instead of getting CASH for his equity?

(total approx 200k)We cannot find anyone to loan us money (ok we tried like 2 places)---I just never thought this would be so difficult because we own a house outright & we are still getting turned down because of 2 late mortgage payments when my husband was injured & out of work for 5 months last year.We both work and made enough money on our first flip to buy the 350k house outright.I am a real estate agent & our area is very rural. 

The real numbers, per the U.S.

Haven't thought of these options much before except this really great podcast episode about real estate investing for assisted living https://link.chtbl.com/Q8HfyKnU Let us know if you decide to do this workshop how it goes and if you found it worthwhile! 

I'm a new real estate agent, and a part time grandma, looking to create passive income so I don't have to work 9-5 the rest of my life.
