Interest rates are just one factor in the equation.You can offset high (er) interest rates by buying lower priced properties or fixers, or putting down more cash, or having a desperate seller do partial financing or buy down the rates...So if rates stay above 5% for the next 5 years I think 2 things happen: 1) More experienced/less timid investors have a huge advantage for a while, 2) eventually when everyone realizes this is the 'new normal' then things just go back to normal with slightly higher rates.But what do I know?

@Mendy Melamed depends on property Class you target and if you're paying cash or financing.Our Metro Detroit market offers many Class B and C opportunities that will positively cashflow, even if you buy putting 20% down and finance the rest.Please PM us for more details!

I have thrown multiple offers at a seller that only wants to sell his properties via seller finance.

During the last 12 month period, convert it to owner financing and refi with no cash out of pocket. 

Where we are tripping up here is finding financing that makes sense! 

Get creative with financing, too.

Thanks in advance. anything too good to be true is scam because all lender uses the same logic anyway lol.for example i can offer you 110%financing, but you have to transfer me $30K initiation/appraisar fee and then I would disappear LOL

Hello,I am 23 years old and I have 20k, how do you find off-market deals and David Greene mentioned subject to Financing where you assume the mortgage.

Never was able to get the cash together at one time to develop and ended up selling to my neighbor in an owner financed deal.

Make sure to vet your lender if you are going that route as STR financing can be challenging sometimes.
