We have no idea if this is a good deal or not.

Hi Jay,Options will be more limited, but there are hard and private money funding available for first time investors.

Any creative ideas on how to make this happen?

The idea that seller agents might not offer commissions to buyer agents anymore could change how properties are marketed big time.

If you want to limit your risk, use lower leverage and put more down.If you have a short-term loan (ex. purchase & rehab loan), you need to refinance anyways so you would refinance at the higher value.

I can walk you though what we have so that you can get and idea what works for you from a Pipeline Management perspective.

I think there might be paperwork to get her more assistance but I have no idea and the total past due keeps climbing ! 

The counter space is also limited so thats really the only reason I would consider the microwave option.

To answer your question: for a relatively small multifamily (I would label this about 20 units or less), yes it is common to not get financials until LOI, and there is very limited information that can be derived from sellers financials that should effect value anyways, because how they operate is probably very different than how you will operate.

@Eric TicasHi Eric,No bank from one country will take a mortgage in another country so you're limited to Mexico when it comes to banks.
