    As a real estate owner who's tired of dealing with tenants directly I was considering the options between rent to own and seller financing but after hearing your detailed description of the rent-to-own option I realize I wouldn't be able to mark up my price for the sale of the home like I could with seller financing. Also I like the idea of cash flow for many years to come so thank you for helping me determine which way to go.

  • @shadebrownbrooks425
    @shadebrownbrooks425 3 роки тому +4

    In rent to own property, I like how you said it’s important to get a restate attorney look over papers and advice or tell you what you’re getting into before signing anything and this video was knowledgeable..

  • @MrWaterbugdesign
    @MrWaterbugdesign 3 роки тому +3

    Great video. I sold a condo years ago as rent-to-own. It was a crap market. I gave a locked in price that was a bit above market with 5% down. So they got all appreciation if they bought. All the rent-to-own deals I see don't lock in price which is a serious problem for buyers. First couple got divorced, backed out and lost their 5%. But they would have lost more if that had bought because of buying and selling fees. Second couple completely the purchase and made a little on appreciation.
    So today I'm thinking of selling in a short term rent-to-own. I'm in Phoenix and the market is very hot. People are paying over asking, basically paying an expected future value in order to lock in now. I could offer to sell at a bit above market and they could move in tomorrow. That's a huge advantage for many...worth a little more. Standard 10% down that they risk which is already common in this market. Then they'd have time to close whenever they like. Big plus for people who need to sell their current home. They could get an equity loan for the 10% down, move and then sell their previous house. As a seller I collect the normal agent fees because no agents are involved, small expense for contract and I get a slightly higher price maybe. Bidding wars make that tough to figure though. This looks very interesting.

    Really informative. I looked up your video because I had clicked on a rent-to-own website and immediately got a call with extreme pressure to sign up for them to fix my credit. They wanted 110/month and could not tell me for how long...The person on the phone talked down to me and got argumentative. Thanks. I will look at other options.

    Hi and thanks for this video. But have you and your team actually thought about making a video about the whole process? with you or a team member portraying a rent to own home buyer going thru the motion and hurdles? You explained it wonderfully but I learn best when I see it done. If it's too much don't sweat it.

    It's really something when you reinforce what some will do to screw someone for their money. Like the intention from the beginning to acquire a buyers option money. A good point is people can get help from a good real estate advisor and or a loan person. I'm going to post this on Facebook in less than 1 minute.Thank you.

    • @jasonchenoweth5448
      @jasonchenoweth5448 4 роки тому +9

      Yes, it's true!!!! It happened to me. it was a (what I thought was a really sweet old lady) my landlord. Once they know that they can "legally" screw you, and get away with it, they will!!! Do your due diligence people!!!! I can not stress this enough!!! ANYTIME you are dealing with another party and ANY amount of money, do your homework. Check anything with an attorney. And before you say" I can't afford to pay an attorney".. ask yourself this... can you afford to LOSE 2-5 years worth of rent/ money??!! Which is cheaper???Yes, it may cost you SOME money, but that money will be worth every penny in the long run.
      I was young and ignorant and spent 2 years paying into a house, plus doing upgrades out of my own pocket(thinking that I was fixing my future home). This was after the market had crashed and the lady couldn't sell the house, so we made the agreement. After all of those things were done, she had the house reappraised, which brought the price and value UP, the economy was on the rise by then and she sold the house from under me!! We went to court, but I was not "legally" covered, or owed anything!!! There was nothing that I could do. Period.
      Her and I went in on this deal with the best of intentions and she really was going to sell the house to me, in the beginning. Her daughter had found out about our "deal", hired an attorney. She then showed the mother that she could quietly have the house appraised again, show the increase in value and "legally" sell the house for a large profit. The reward was too good to pass up, and she pulled the trigger! She basically admitted it, but I couldn't prove most things and was not covered, even though I had receipts and so on!!! It was brutal. Money changes people!!! I don't care what you say, it will make a 70 year old lady turn on a man and his family in a heartbeat if the opportunity arises. I had to move me and my family out of the house. There were other things that happened before and after... but im just saying this stuff to make a point!! Cover your a$$ people. Do the homework, hire the attorney, spend a little money now, or loose a lot later.

    Andrew, I've been watching your channel for about a week now, and I've learned a lot.
    Any advice for young looking-to-buyers who can't agree and how to know when one or both are being too difficult?

    • @AndrewFinney
      @AndrewFinney  6 років тому +4

      Hi Candace Marie Carter,
      Thank you for watching and for your kind words!
      Very happy my channel is helping your learn more about buying a home.
      Absolutely! In fact, I've made other videos offering techniques to get on the same sheet of music.
      Try this... Each of you go to opposite ends of where you're living now and write down each of you have in mind for your new home.
      Things like:
      # of bedrooms
      # of bathrooms
      Size of the house
      Yard Size
      1, 2, 3 or more story
      Area preference
      Price range (of course this one depends on your loan pre-approval amount)
      Must Haves
      Undesirables
      Community
      etc...
      When both of you are done, reconvene and write down everything you agree with each other about then seek compromise on the other areas where both of you have a difference of opinion.
      Candace Marie Carter, definitely let us know how this goes and how ya'll resolved this issue together.
      For both of your success, you must first be in agreement.
      Enjoy an incredible day!
      Thanks,
      -Your Real Estate Geek, Andrew Finney

    What are the costs to get a lawyer to check if there are any problems on the home etc? I would get an inspection and what else would I need to do? Title search is done by the lawyer, correct?

    • @tishmadry
      @tishmadry 5 років тому +1

      Correct, lawyers don't check that's what the inspection is for. Title/Attorneys searches and settlements are affordable.

    Great information. I'm currently working on my credit score & will be renting to own.

  • @CameronSevyn
    @CameronSevyn 3 роки тому

    My credit isn’t an issue and I have multiple investment properties- the problem is how my accountant (on purpose) structured my taxes (because I was positive I wouldn’t be buying a property this year) and because of that, my DTI is 120% for this year (only).
    So I may entertain the lease to own option for the first time (as buyer), but before going down that route is there a better option from lenders who factor everything EXCEPT DTI?

  • @chachee15
    @chachee15 5 років тому +2

    people put 20% down when they go to a bank right? So when they get foreclosed on they lose that down payment right? So what's the difference other than they lose out on a lot less money when they do a rent to own.

    • @NotShowingOff
      @NotShowingOff 5 років тому

      chachee15 a foreclosure means that the bank wants the outstanding debt, but also has to pay carrying costs. Therefore, the bank will sell it for as quickly as possible. Meaning the buyer doesn’t get back much equity.

  • @gaskinsgarage4192
    @gaskinsgarage4192 4 роки тому +3

    So I'm about to go into a rent to own deal. The house and land are evaluated at way over what were getting it for. I have to make repairs to house before move in and it will take off a percent off total monthly payment. Were signing into a 5 year contract. Now this is where its gonna get weird the lady who owns property is elderly what would happen in the event she passes and the house gets passed on would the contract still be valid?

    • @AndrewFinney
      @AndrewFinney  4 роки тому +2

      That's an excellent question Steven!
      I'm not an attorney, though it would seem that any contract should have a provision for such an eventuality.
      Best practice here is to reach out to a real estate attorney or contract attorney to verify just to be safe. Especially if you're making upfront repairs to the property!
      Please let us know how it works for you.
      Sending you positive mojo everything works out for you! =)

  • @tcamp007
    @tcamp007 3 роки тому +1

    Does this seem fair:
    Landlord/owner pays down payment. On let’s say a 60k home. Charges 800 per mo. And then has the tenant/buyer pay a “credit fee” of 1600 at the beginning of each lease year to keep the contract going. The 1600 will be paid until the amt of the down payment is recovered. In this case 20% of 60k or 12k. The loan could last 10- 20 years until the home is paid for. This allows the person with bad credit to have owner financing, avoiding the bank...and allows the investor the opportunity to make money during the loan process.
    Fair or not? Curious.

    • @tishmadry
      @tishmadry 5 років тому +1

      Or ask for a recent one the owner may have and use it if it's not old. Ask a friend or hire a handy man and get the inspections during the purchase at the end of the year. These 2 strategies will put off the upfront cost of inspection.

  • @tz4035
    @tz4035 2 роки тому +1

    I am surprised that is such a option fee non refundable. I am buying a property to rent to own to my landscaper and his family. They are such honest hard workers, but they don't have credit to buy a property. I was under the assumption to take a portion of the rent to apply towards their down payment when they are able to qualify to buy the property in the future. I volunteered to help them to build their credit. I am ok not to requiring them to pay for the option fee upfront. For me is ok just have them to be able to qualify for the purchase of the property. This presentation is very helpful to understanding the rent to own process. Thank you so much.

      Hey T Z! Thanks for watching this video and for taking a moment to comment. It sounds as though you might be one of the good ones that will use this type of purchase the honest way. Kudos to you!
      If possible, it's might be a good idea to review the contract and terms with an attorney in your area familiar with the process.

    @MrDavePed 5 років тому +4

    I wonder what the differences are between rent to own and contract for deed. From the seller's perspective what are the pros and cons?
    Is it true that the seller pays the property tax on a rent to own and the buyer pays the property tax on a contract for deed?
    Also, is it true that the buyer pays for most of the repairs on a rent to own and all of the repairs on a contract for deed?
    If these are both true, what are the advantages to the seller on a rent to own over a contract for deed?
    What are the other distinctions?
    Thanks..

    I just started the video and I believe it's not a good time to do buy a home. I live in the Phoenix area and it's crazy. Homes that usually go for 250k are not going for 300 to 350k with 30 some bids. So my fear is if you do this program get into a house and the market levels out and your home start decreasing in value because the inventory grew to help the demand next you know you can't buy that home because they want 300k but your banks says it's worth 240k.

      Pros: non refundable down payment, little to no maintenance cost, no property management fee, no Realtor commissions, no closing costs, no seller contribution, you agree to price regardless of future market swings, you can decide to sell it or not later, you get monthly residual income monthly. I can assist.

  • @Lovetaylorelyse
    @Lovetaylorelyse 4 роки тому +1

    Hi, I am looking to get into a rent to own agreement with my current landlord. I have already been approved for a loan based on my income and credit but because of COVID I am currently unemployed and not able to get a bank loan. So I thought "rent to own" might be perfect considering I should be back to work and eligible to get a loan definitely within the next year. However, there are repairs that need to be done on the home. Like new HVAC, and possibly roof issues. Once I get an inspection how does that work on a rent to own? Would they have to just take the repairs off the purchase price? Are they Legally supposed to fix these issues before I purchase the house? Can I fix them and then they would have to take it off the purchase price? or is that too risky?
    Lastly, do you have suggestions on other lender who would give someone who is currently unemployed? I have excellent credit and the down payment a home loan, which is why this has been so frustrating for me.

We've been looking for a new place but aren't willing to purchase as of yet because it's a big decision to make, as well as location etc. So Divvy was presented as an option so that if we didn't like the neighborhood etc we can get the money back (not in full probably 80%ish) after about 3 years and move.

I've worked a deal out with an attorney out of town who can do closing and I am going to put the house in your name! Closing is $750. All you need to do is put the money in your payment acct & the attorney will handle the rest. Nothing will change as far as payments. The insurance & taxes will still be paid through your payments." (He is the insurance agent as well. Will the ins we are paying be for him? And we still need to purchase our own as well? If so that's normal? We've asked him to email us the paperwork & ins info. Anything else we are missing. I see no benefit to him? We've been here 13 yrs in August. Why bother? I'd love it in our name but what's the catch? It feels like theirs a catch? Also the rto agreement stated no pets. Can he still impose that clause on us?

      Perhaps I can answer. I wouldn't say it would matter on any prior ownership, unless it's a bankruptcy. Rent to own or lease options are similar to renting. What ever issues you have need to be handled within the term of the contract. That's what make the pre-screen important. The tenant/buyer should be able to purchase at the end of the contract term.

      You may want to consult a real estate attorney to assist you.

I highly encourage you to contact a real estate attorney if you elect to enter a rent to own agreement.

      Thank you for watching and commenting. You rock!
      That depends on the the situation. I contacted one of the lenders I work with here in Las Vegas to better answer you question. His name is Bill Merren with New American Funding. He said it really depends on the specific terms and contract used for the rent to own option. That being said, no benefit really exists to the seller of such a property if the upfront fees aren't present. In many cases these types of sales aren't nearly as attractive as they seem.
      All the same, you can reach Bill with further questions at: www.newamericanagent.com/billmerren

      In short, the prospective buyer defaults and tenancy laws in a specific state make it difficult to evict them or a possible litigation over the terms of the contract. There's a quite a bit actually that could go wrong if one isn't careful on both sides.
