I am trying to get a deal worked out where we will purchase the properties very cheap, sign a contract that gives us 120 days to make a larger payment, and during the 1st 90 days rehab them, then on day 90 pull some equity out of them and use that cash to pay off the wholesaler.

However the math is simple… run an amortization calculator see what the taxes & Mort payment are, and then know what a flat in that area rents for, With that said here is 2 typical examples of Albany propertiesNew Scotland area 2 family’s run around 220k, 6k taxes, 1k insurance payment would be around 1570 a month, typical rentals would be around 1300Washington ave areas 2 family will run around 140, 3500 in taxes, 1k insurance would be about 1000 a month, with rentals being around 1000 a month.So you pretty much can break even in the not as good areas, grab a roommate or 2 and you’re really cash flowing.But don’t forget about the big savings of the low down payment and locked in low interest rate when you plan on exiting in 2-3 years

I'm firm on the down payment I've offered her, so I'm not interested in using that to account for the loan issue. 

Hello, BP - Could any experienced investors speak on the ability, or availability, of using a private loan to assist in the down payment on a conventional loan?

I'm planing on using the profit from flips for down payments on buy and hold rentals.

Hi @Thomas Brady - definitely looks interesting.20 year amortization is a nice period of time for cashflow.What are your thoughts on how you would pay for the balloon payment at 10 years? 

His "renter" is 3 months behind on his payments and can legally be foreclosed on in my state.

Hi @Breon Smith are they saying $5K purchase price or just the initial investment to get the house, like a down payment? 

On an amortization schedule at 5% interest over 30 years, 192 payments have been made.

Explain how you are a credible buyer, have down payment funds, have a team, can get or have financing...
