I can take about $10,000 down. The only problem with the 90%LTV is that the property won’t finance with conventional means. I guess I could still take the 10K down and carry the remaining $80,000 on contract using a wrap. What do you think about my plan of carrying it for 8 years (amortized for 30 yrs.)?
I have a 4-unit income property for sale. The existing loan on the property is through a private investor. It is amortized for 30 years at 10% with a pay-off in ten years. There is about 9 years left. The amount owed is $70,000. The payments with taxes and insurance is about $675. The rental income from the property is $1145. It is fully rented.
The fair market value is around $90,000. The property does need some fixing up (Ext. paint.,new roof; interior updating such as paint, carpet, vinyl, counters, etc.). I’m currently advertising it as follows : 20% Return! $20,000 down. 4-unit income property, fully rented. No Qualifying!
The return on investment would be around 20% for 8 years because of being amortized for 30 years. I’m planning on doing a wrap on the property ($70,000 amortized 30 yrs. at 10% with pay-off in 8 yrs.). If the note wasn’t paid in 8 yrs. there would be approx. 1 yr. to foreclose and re-sell. I’ve had a lot of calls but no takers. I think the exterior shape of the property is the main problem. I don’t have time to do fix-up. I need to raise cash now. I need some ideas on selling. I appreciate any response. Thank You…
I forgot to mention that the 4-plex is older and has some foundation problems. It won’t finance with conventional means. As for the $20,000 down that I am asking, I don’t need the whole thing right now. I do need about $10,000 of it to pay some bills. I have thought about taking $10,000 of it on a note or maybe in trade. What do you think? Thanks, Dave
So far, all I have done is advertise in the local paper.
I thought that because of the No Qualifying part of the transaction that I would have many interested parties. In my area, finding property with No Qualifying is fairly difficult. Maybe, I should try some different avenues for selling. Thanks for your response.

20K down is 22% on a FMV of 90K. 4-plexes qualify for residential (90% NOO) financing. I wouldn’t be interested in that deal. Can you take less down? It kind of sounds like not.
