A Simple Real Estate Success Formula
It was a simple real estate formula. The ads ran in our small-town newspaper for years before I realized exactly what was going on. They were always the same: A house for sale with 5% down and payments of 1% of the purchase price. Maybe a three bedroom home for $90,000, for example, with $4,500 down and $900 per month payments. . . .

Nothing Down And A Few Ways
Nothing down? Exactly why would a seller want to walk away from closing with nothing? The truth is, they normally wouldn't, and that brings up the most important point about real estate investing with no downpayment: A seller almost always needs cash at closing, but it doesn't have to be YOUR cash. . . .

Zero Down On Property
Zero down doesn't really mean no down payment. Most sellers need something as a down payment if they are providing financing. Most banks won't do 100% financing on real estate that is purchased as an investment. Zero down just means that the down payment won't come from your money. So where will you get it? Can you really profit from real estate without having money to start? . . .

No Money Down Real Estate: Fund All Your Deals With Private Lending!

Create Monthly Cash Flow Without Any Money Or Credit
A profitable, yet easy--to--learn method of creating cash flow is to buy and re--sell properties in back--to--back closings. However, flipping properties in this manner requires you to KEEP WORKING. When you stop working, the cash flow stops coming in. Rather than flip properties for all cash, flip them for some cash and a promissory note that pays you monthly income with interest for years and years. . . .

How Financing Affects The Real Estate Market
Since financing plays a large part of real estate sales, it also affects values; the higher the interest rate, the larger your monthly payment. Conversely, the lower the interest rate, the lower the monthly payment. Thus, the lower the interest rate, the larger the mortgage loan you can afford to pay. Consequently, the larger the mortgage you can afford, the more the seller can ask for in the sales prices. . . .

Using A Home Equity Line Of Credit For Investments
A home equity line of credit ("HELOC") can be an excellent financing tool, if it is used properly. A HELOC is basically a credit card secured by a mortgage or deed of trust on your property. You only pay interest on the amounts you borrow on the HELOC. If you don't use the line of credit, you don't have any monthly payments to make. You can access the HELOC by writing checks provided by the lender. In most cases, it will be a second lien on your property. . . .

Equity Sharing Agreements
If you are low on cash or have cash and are low on time, a partnership or equity--sharing arrangement may be for you. Using partners to finance real estate transaction is the classic form of using "OPM" (other people's money). Experienced investors are always willing to put up money to be a partner in a profitable real estate transaction. As with many businesses, talent is more important than cash; if you can find a good real estate deal, the money will find its way to you! . . .
