Private Mortgage Creative Real
Estate Financing
Technique #8...
A private mortgage
can be moved from a senior to a junior position. Take a look at the following situation: A seller has a property on the market for
$60,000.
There is an existing private first mortgage on the property in the amount of $30,000.
Approach the private mortgage
lender to see if the mortgage can be moved from a first
position (senior) to a second position (junior) if you pay $10,000 in cash. Agree to pay the cash after a new first mortgage is secured. This will reduce the mortgage from $30,000 to $20,000. Next, put a new $40,000 first mortgage on the property; $10,000 of this will be the cash that goes
to the private mortgage holder and the other $30,000 ($40,000 less $10,000) will go to the seller. this no money down technique works well when the private mortgage holder is not willing to discount the mortgage in return for a complete payoff.
If you own property that has a private first mortgage, you could use this same technique
to remove your equity for other investment purposes. However, many people like the security of having equity in their homes.
