Attention Real Estate Professionals
- Do you have clients who have been unable to sell their homes?
- Do you have clients who have been unable to obtain financing?
- Do you have clients who are over-leveraged and thus want to sell their homes for more than it’s worth?
- Do you have clients who balk at paying you 6% commission?
Sure you do. Don’t let these clients slide away. We have an innovative Lease Purchase Program that serves as a bridge to a permanent mortgage for your clients. In most cases, it is a win-win situation for all parties. If you bring us your clients, we will work with you to get you a fair compensation. Don’t walk away empty handed from deals any more.
However, this program is not for everyone. To ensure the success of our program, we have strict criteria:
For Buyers:
- Shortsale, foreclosure, bankruptcy is acceptable in most cases
- Self-employed is OK
- Desired homes have to be in the range of $150,000 to $2,000,000 (low-end homes do not qualify)
- Must have 5%-15% of expected purchase price available
- Lease Purchase terms from 6 to 36 months, before permanent financing must be obtained
For Sellers:
- Homes from $150,000 to $2,000,000
- Must be willing to wait 6 months to 36 months before being able to cash out completely
- Seller has full authority to accept or reject any buyer we bring in
- Existing mortgage is OK
Key Benefits:
- Seller continues to collect monthly payment during the term of the lease purchase
- Seller often gets full price for home, because the buyer likely does not have leverage for negotiation
- Our fees, and yours, DO NOT come from the Seller, so seller gets maximum value
- Buyer pays our (and your) fees
- Seller DOES NOT have responsibility of collecting payments – we handle everything
- Seller is not responsible for the maintenance of the home – Buyer takes over the responsibility
- Buyer gets the home of his or her dreams now, can lock in current price, while waiting for his credit to improve
How it Works
- Seller agrees to a short-term Lease Purchase (typically from 6 to 18 months)
- We find a buyer who can afford the house, has sufficient funds for down payment, but unable to qualify for a traditional mortgage due to a hiccup in their credit history
- We pre-approve the buyer through a third-party lending service
- We work out the down payment and the lease payments
- We determine the term of the lease, which is usually calculated based on the amount of time the buyer needs to qualify for traditional financing
- Once buyer approves, we execute the agreement and the buyer moves in
- At the end of the term, the buyer obtains traditional financing, and the Seller gets paid in full and the title transfers over to the Buyer
- Unlike traditional lease-option agreements, the Buyer must obtain traditional financing at the end of the term, or the title does not transfer and the Seller takes the home back.
- Our program is special because we conduct due diligence and because the Buyer has skin in the game, we have found that almost everyone is able to obtain financing.
