Tucker Long Seeking lender to help with delayed financing
20 May 2018 | 4 replies
I'm searching for an Ohio lender who can help pull 100% of $ back out of a cash purchase, via delayed financing (of course contingent upon appraisal being high enough).For those unfamiliar, check out this great post on the topic (specifically part 2) https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/48/topics/460294-how-to-cash-out-1-4-unit-propertyhttps://www.fanniemae.com/content/guide/selling/b2/1.2/03.htmlI've talked to several loan officers who are typically investor friendly, they all either want the investor to leave some of their own cash in the deal for first 6-12 months due to their own banks overlay, or they don't understand this process/don't want to mess with this.Has anyone successfully pulled 100% of their cash out of an all cash purchase in Ohio with this technique?
Kyle Albus Rent/Deposit without a move in date?
21 May 2018 | 6 replies
I have a hard move-in date that the tenant must adhere to, but if I cannot provide the unit to them within 14 days (outgoing tenant holds over, tree falls on building, destructive fire, code violations, etc.) they can walk away free and clear, or delay occupancy (their option).The money they are asking for in advance is absolutely par for the course; I require first, last and security deposit (as well as any pet fees) to be paid before I will even sign a lease with a prospective tenant.Maybe someone who is more familiar with HOAs can chime in, but it seems possible that they would have their own bureaucracy that they would subject their owners to.No legal advice given.
