I recently came across an opportunity to help a builder with their financing.

Consider an installment sale if financing is an issue.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

How did you finance this deal?

Hi Michael, we're a national lender, so if you need financing in either locale, feel free to reach out!

I can see the OP giving this a shot.. but it is risky he could end up making a few bucks and getting experience might just break even or he could take a loss.. that margin is very thin in markets that are not selling as soon as you get CO  thats been one reason we have been profitable very few homes have been carried past CO so financing cost are at a minimum.. you hold a spec home 6 months past Co and every month your losing money you will not recover.

Loads of information on the forums and BP tools for you to expand your knowledge or find just about anything.I am on the lending side of things and am always happy to talk shop with investors looking to learn more about financing options out there, even if not in my resource pool.

Ask yourself: do I really have the knowledge of real estate principles, real estate law and real estate finance; the network of contacts; the experience both in business in general and real estate in particular; the time available; and the analytical ability to compete against FULL TIME EXPERIENCED PROFESSIONALS to be successful in a field where the failure rate is so astronomically high?  

For example, even if I liquidated by bitcoin just a month ago, it would have lost 50% of its value.I understand this is not easy, but this is the creative financing forum so trying to think creatively here =) If you expect the gains to continue, why get out of Bitcoin?  

Inherently the steps are the same as if you were purchasing with financing save potentially less closing costs and ability to close sooner (if needed).The terms of your offer (ie -contingencies, closing cost splits etc) will determine what is different.
