The Wholesaling Process 1. Find the Deal 2. Qualify It 3. Get it Under Contract 4. Find the Dollars (Buyer) 5. Qualify Them 6. Assign the Contract to Buyer 7. Buyer Closes 8. You Collect Assignment Fee This is Tonight s Focus Section 4 Structuring Your Deal How to Structure Your Purchase Offer for a Quick Sale Reference: Module 3 in Home Study System Funding Deals 2 Schools of Thought Structuring Your Purchase Offer School 1 Negotiate lowest price for max assignment fee Make all CASH offers School 2 Negotiate best terms for easy close & assignment Pay higher price for financing terms (less cash) When starting out & until you have a Buyer s list, I recommend School 2. You want to be a creative financier.
Example Which Would Be Easier to Assign? Price: $1 Million $1 Million Cash Price $1.1 Million $275,000 Cash $825,000 New Bank Mortgage Which would pay a higher assignment fee? Price $1.1 Million $165,000 Cash $110,000 Seller Finance $825,000 Assumed Mortgage Strategy: Attract Buyers Like a Magnet Think like a Buyer. Use creative purchase strategies to place the property under contract: Assumable Mortgages Seller-Financed Mortgages Own Nothing. Control Everything. Make it as easy as possible for the Buyer to gain Control of the Property. Sell your creative contract. The Easier it is for Your Buyer to Buy, the Easier it is for You to Sell Your Contract for a Premium, Quickly. Raising Private Money Formula 1. Predisposed 2. Control 3. Low Risk 4. High Return Return of Capital Before Return on Capital You Need to Think Like a Buyer-Investor
Predisposed Sources for Funding Your Deal Banks Seller Private Investor Real Estate Broker You Buyer You are the Conductor - Orchestrating the Deal to Closing Banks National Banks Community Banks FHA (non-rehab & rehab) Found thru Commercial Mortgage Brokers Traditional Bank Finance Model 20-30% down payment 70-80% new bank financing 6% interest 30 year amortization 5 year balloon or rate adjustment (Recourse vs Non-recourse) Non-recourse $2 Million loan & above Lower risk to Buyer
Key Predisposed Source Seller Assumable Mortgages Assumable Mortgage Always ask Is the loan assumable? 1% transfer fee Terms can be very good <6% interest Ask, When is the note due? Conduit loans Great interest rate (< 5.5%) but Has to be assumed. Cannot be refinanced. Ask, What is the prepayment penalty? Your Deal Analysis Sheet asks if the loan is assumable. Key Predisposed Source Seller Seller Financing Seller Financing Always propose they finance at least 10% of the purchase 2 nd mortgage Offer 2x prime rate (7%), interest-only, 5 yr balloon Even better is deferred interest Deferred down payment Very similar to Seller financing Ex: 1 year deferral of down payment or pay over 12 months My 1 st Deal Small Apartment 100% Seller Financed 6% interest 30 year amortization NO balloon The Secret to getting this I asked!
Student Example Jon Perry 42 unit distressed Bank REO Purchased & closed for: $210,000 ($5000 per door) 95% bank financing 6% interest-only NO Balloon The Secret to getting this he asked! Key Predisposed Source Seller Sophisticated Lease-Option What if the property is upside down? (Seller owes more than the property is worth?) Example: Mortgage balance is $1 Million Value is $850,000 Strategy: Own Nothing. Control Everything. TM Own Nothing. Control Everything. TM 5 Year NNN Master Lease Situation: Low occupancy; Needs moderate rehab & rent increase. Out of state Owner. Option to Buy for $1 Million Private Investor (for rehab if needed) $50,000 Reposition, raise income & hence value to $1.3 Million. Buy for $1 Million or Sell the option.
