I just found a property in which the seller is willing to do an interest free owner finance if I can get the $50k that she needs for a family emergency. I figure the best way to do that in this market is to find a private money lender and to make them an offer they cant refuse. The only problem is, I don't know what that would be. What would be a good return for them after, say, 3yrs with some monthly payments as cashflow along the way? Or even without? This is a property with a lot of future potential. A realtor suggested an asking price of 199k to the owner, but the owner is willing to take 160/165,000. Their loan is for 60k and the payment is a little more than 700/mo. It COULD double in cash flow and is on commercial property so will probably get bought out by the retailers in the adjacent lot in the near close but distant future. Any ideas for me???
