You have a maintenance issue…unpredictable cash flow.

Improving your terms or not cash out on some of that equity to reinvest?

>Investor would get a discount on ARV and be cash flow positive during the holding period.My issue is the premise this is a discount purchase.  

I funded one in Feb for 65k and it sold for 115k in 7 days cash out cash in .. split profit with my client he finds them I provide the money its a wonderful business..

Depending on the zip code you might also check with Wells Fargo to see if they offer the down payment assistance grants in that area.Could be the buyer is just trying to save cash, so counter back with no closing costs.   

Too many new investors playing with fire and they end up getting burnt bad.. 

Hi Hugo, midterm rental can provide you much more cash flow than traditional long-term rentals.

now say you 'cash flow' $150 a month. 

We either have the option of using some funding from our HELOC or from a silent partner ( we have about 1/2 of DP in cash).  

Hi Marc, one big plus of buying a property with tenants is that you get immediate cash flow when you close.
