The TurnKey Investor’s “Subject To” Mortgage Handbook: The Art & Science of Buying Investment Property by Taking Over Mortgages!


Product Description “Imagine buying an investment property with no mortgage! The most common obstacle for any investor who wants to buy an investment property is to get financing. The bankers say that if you want to buy a property for investment, the only way to finance is to have a big down payment and qualify for a mortgage. But this is the only way to acquire property, the hard way! Another way to buy buildings in investment is to have sellers call you and you have … More>>

What do you think of peer-to-peer lending (Prosper.com, LendingTree.com, Zopa.com, etc.)?

Personally, I think that peer-to-peer lending is an excellent idea. It increases the return for investors and reduces the rate for lenders (vs banks). It is also perfect for small loans and short-term loans, which banks don’t even offer. My biggest concern is that everything has a time and place, and this is DEFINITELY not the time (for potential lenders), although hopefully the US will become the place.

Internationally, Peer-to-Peer defaults are <5%. I wouldn’t be surprised if they were in the 20%-50% default rate here and now. We already know that the average US consumer spends more than they earn (incredible!). So what happens if they are able to get money on the internet and faced with a choice like this:

a) pay mortgage
b) pay car loan
c) pay for food
d) pay for gas
e) pay anonymous lender on the internet

So while 8%-20% rate of returns are tempting, I would wait until the attitudes (and debt) adjusts before getting into this in the US. What are other opinions on the subject?

How to mortgage a home with no credit history?

How to mortgage a home with no credit history?
How can one mortgage a home without any credit history? We don’t own any credit cards and credit is harder now to obtain than before. What kind of a down payment would we need?

Thanks!

FHA has a no score program, but no investors are buying them so it is very hard to do. With the no score program we use things such as light bills, water, rent etc as credit. However, since most mortgage companies end up selling your loan to an investor & most investors are not buying these loans now they are rarely getting done these days.
