Check out the little “money making idea” article that I wrote up- http://www.creonline.com/mm-51.html

I wrote that after hearing many of the same questions from sellers when I pitched a lease option. Usually when I first approach a seller with this offer, the thing that I emphasize is that I guarantee all maintenance and repairs, as well as their monthly payment. Most of them are happy to have someone come along and take over any expense related to the house, so that’s what I make a point of telling them.

If I put an ad in the paper to get sellers to call me and I suggest that they do a Lease/Option, what are the benefits to them, as the seller, if they do a Lease/Option. I know the benefits for the buyer, but I don’t know as many benefits for the seller.

What can I tell them when they call me so that it sounds like something they would want to do? This seems to be the hardest part of the Lease/Option. What has worked for you (anyone who has experience with L/O’s) in the past?

Thanks a lot!!!
