I am currently exploring private lending and seller financing options but in the event these options don't work out what other creative financing options should I look into?

Hi all I am considering exiting a duplex soon and wanted to reach out to the community and ask what are some things I should l be prepared for in the selling process and what steps I should take to maximize my return.

The agent orders a title commitment from the underwriter and prepares the closing docs and emails them to the various parties, i.e. closing statements, deed to be signed, affidavits, wiring instructions. 

I would also recommend looking for a tax strategist who is willing to work with you throughout the year, not just when preparing your tax return.

We think one needs to be very creative in this market in order to get any deals and reduce the risk going forward.

@Paul BegichCongratulations on a creative solution.  

**Property: ARV: $90K ( being safe there was 1 comp that should for $98K and 1 pending for $95K) **Repairs:  She explained a bunch of minor things that could be $10K-$15K ( all mechanics have been update and roof within 7 years) The pictures she sent home is definitely livable **This property can rent for $1050/ month **Mortgage Amount $63000*Monthly Mortgage payment $696 Im curious to hear the creative strategies as the cash offer just doesn't make sense here but I want to explore all options 

For example, connecting with a realtor to assist with structuring the deal, or leaning on another professional to prepare paperwork.. 

But it might be even nicer if they could delay that and benefit from the tax while at the same time preparing to pass it on to you tax free.

students deserve nice places to live. we aren't trying to be slumlords but i do realize that students probably have slightly lower expectations than other types of tenants, so i feel we wont need to break the bank in the level of finishing details like we did on our own home but we will provide housing that is clean and safe and attractive. also thinking we can use some creative materials and methods to make the units party-proof. maybe we get lucky and find some long term professors or grad students and don't have to do annual turnover on every unit. even so, i budgeted 8% for property management after watching david greene's webinar yesterday.the heloc would allow for an easy down payment and a nice buffer for rehab, and i have 750+ credit score and good wage earning history, so i think a conventional loan should not be a problem to obtain. a cash out refi might be an option on the horizon if we decide to really crank a proper rehab but the units (from the pictures i saw) are livable as-is.should i be more specific here on the address/market to get better help?
