One of the biggest opportunities in today’s market is seller financing with sellers who own their properties free and clear (with no mortgage).
Many of these homeowners are now trying to sell and are realizing that they are not getting offers anywhere close to their asking price. They also see that there are a lot less buyers than a year ago. This is causing some of these sellers to be much more motivated to sell.
Some of these sellers will consider discounting the price, but not by enough to make it a worthwhile cash purchase price for you as an investor. With these leads, the opportunity is to approach the seller with a creative strategy like seller financing.
Offer these sellers a low down payment and then monthly interest payments with a low interest rate. Then negotiate on those terms instead of negotiating on the price. I teach this at the Buying Houses & Creative Financing Boot Camp.
