your one of your questions you asked was
um Okay, so your seller,
they've already moved out of their house
and they're in their parents house. Is
that right?
>> No, they've already bought a house next
to their parents house because they're
about to have a baby
>> and they want mom's help with the baby
type of thing. So, they want some
additional help. Okay, cool. So, they're
moving there for proximity in the house
that they currently have. Not a lot of
movement. They have a mortgage on the
house plus a little bit of equity.
>> Yeah, they bought two years ago, so not
a ton of equity bought in the height of
the market, but
>> Okay, perfect. So this is like a great
scenario for me as a buyer. Doesn't mean
it's a good fit for your client, but
let's explore it. So,
>> so what I'll do is I'll kind of walk
through my business model and what I do
with the houses so you understand um you
know with your seller, your seller's
mortgage is going to stay in their name
based on how I buy it. And there's three
different ways I can buy it. And by the
way, you should learn this just from the
sense that you should be doing this.
Like if if it was me and I was the agent
on the deal, I'd go to the seller after
I know what I'm gonna teach you and I'd
go to every seller that has a similar
situation. You'll probably run into five
to 10 a year, something like that,
depending on what your volume is. But um
what brokerage are you guys with? >> Homesmart.
>> Homesmart.
>> Homes Smart. Okay, cool. Home Smart is a
really good split. I forget.
>> Yeah, it's 100% brokerage.
>> That's right. have a black.
>> Homes smarts for agents that are like, I
don't need a lot of support. I'm good. I
just want a good split. Right. >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> I do know a lot of Homes Smart agents
that they're usually the more
experienced ones that are way more self-sufficient.
self-sufficient.
And then there's brokerages like Keller
Williams is like tons of support, right?
>> I'm going to put this on.
>> Okay. And their splits like 7030 type of thing.
thing.
>> Okay, cool. So, my business model is to
look for
um pain
or sellers that want way too much gain.
And you'll run into both of these. So,
like good example is I have an RV park
that I'm buying right now. We're closing
on February 1st in Texas.
Seller um was worried that Camala Harris
was going to win the election.
And um so he was in our pipeline and we
asked him, "Hey, will you sell it? Will
you sell it? Will you sell?" He's like,
"No, no, no, no." And then he started
believing that Kamala Harris was going
to win. Why is that important to him?
Well, it's important to him because he's
in Kermit, Texas, which is an oil town.
And so he thought, "Oh my gosh, if
>> she becomes elected, >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> I'm going to lose all my clients,
right?" And his RV park is 100% rented
out for like the next year. But gas and
oil, I'm sure you're aware, is like this,
this,
>> right? Like North Dakota has a big boom
for three years and then everybody
leaves and now there's all these empty
houses type of thing. And so he was
worried about that. So that's pain,
right? I'm looking for somebody that's
in pain.
>> He also wants gain, which means I'm not
in financial pain,
but I'm worried about X, Y, and Z, and I
want to get the highest possible number
available. And so we bought the RV park
from him for 1.7. It's probably worth
1.7. I paid full retail,
>> which an investor would never do. Why
would I pay full retail for something? >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> Right. That's like buying a car off a
dealership's lot and then trying to go
and sell it on Craigslist for more
money. It doesn't that doesn't work,
right? And re real estate's the same
way. So, um, we understood the
opportunity. He didn't understand,
right? So, I bought that for I'm we're
closing February 1st, 1.7. There's two
acres next to it that I also bought. He
didn't even think about this. I'm going
to expand the spots and then we'll go
sell it for 3.5 this summer. Okay,
that's kind of a traditional deal. But
what why was he selling? Pain and
worried. Why did we strike a price at
1.7? Because he wanted the he was not
going to budge on the 1.7. Why? because
he's retiring and he's like, "This is my
last asset and if I sell to you, I'm
getting out. I'm going to pay my capital
gain and I'm out. I'm just out of real
estate." Okay, cool. So, I do RV parks,
we do multif family, we do a lot of
things, we buy businesses, we just we
buy just about everything. I have 300
single family homes in my portfolio. And
100% of the ones in my portfolio, I
either bought
sub 2
um which also you could the same
strategy, which we'll jump into in a
second. I can also buy on a lease
option, which I'm sure you're aware of
lease options. And I can also buy on in
Arizona, they're called agreements for sale.
sale.
We can go through that in a minute. And
or okay, out of the 100% of the houses I
buy, if somebody you guys have had
listings where sellers are like, I want
this price. You're like, bro, >> yeah,
>> yeah,
>> what are you talking about? Like
>> you can't say that. >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> Right. You got to be tactic tactical and
stuff. Um but we buy those on seller finance.
finance.
Okay. So, people that are like, "No, I
want to sell my house and I'm retiring."
Could be an investor um that just wants
to get out of the game. It could be a
seller that is wealthy. In fact, the
wealthier the client, the more apt they
are to take a seller finance deal
because they don't need the money and
they also understand how it benefits
them tax- wise and how it benefits them
for making they make way more money on a
seller finance deal than they ever would
selling for cash on the market.
>> And usually it's the seller in the
higher end echelon that understands
that. Like the house I live in in Mesa,
11,000 foot home. I bought it for three
million, no money down. I paid the
seller a seller finance payment every
month. Why would he do that? Well,
because he moved to Puerto Rico. He
didn't want to deal with it. Didn't want
He had 10 kids. So, imagine
painting a house, cleaning it up, light
bulbs, all the things. Then potentially
getting a benzer on a 11,000 foot house.
>> He's like, I don't want to deal with any
of that. So, I just bought it, seller
finance, no money down. He had a he
wanted gain and he wanted to get out of
the house, right? So, I buy in big
echelons, it's super simple because
they're doing business. They're probably
doing some sort of seller finance
situation in their business as it is,
whatever it is, right? Like they might
go, "Hey, I'm buying a widget from you.
I'm going to improve that widget. I'm
going to sell it to Walmart." I mean,
heck, Walmart does seller finance all
day long. They buy the widget from the
manufacturer, they sell it off their
shelf, and then they collect the money,
and then they pay the manufacturer 90
days later, right? They do a net 90 or
net 60. I'm sure you're aware of this
kind of stuff, right? So, like an egg
farmer doesn't get paid
>> when the eggs go in Walmart. The egg
farmer gets paid 90 days after Walmart
collects the money. So, Walmart's doing
seller finance on every single thing
that you've ever seen on their store.
Same thing with Costco and same thing
with all these other people, right? So,
when you get into like a higher echelon
of people,
>> they already understand it. They're
like, "Oh, yeah, like a seller
carryback." Or like, "Yeah, of course,
we can do terms. No problem." But in
where you're at right here, you've got a
seller. Their first house they bought
probably was FHA. They didn't put a lot
of money down probably.
>> Okay. So, they don't have a big, you
know, what what's the sales price right now?
now? >> 430.
>> 430.
>> Okay. So, 430. And if it sold on the
market right now, at least my
experience, you guys might have a
different experience. My my experience
is that when you sell a house on the
retail market,
it costs about 8 to 10% to sell the
house. Why? Because you've got agents
commissions. You've got the binser. A
lot of people just don't even realize a
Oh, it's a $10,000 credit. That's a cost
to sell your house, right?
>> And people don't realize that. Or maybe
sometimes you'll have a client that has
an empty house and they're making
payments for four months while that
they're selling their house. That's a
cost to sell the house obviously, right?
So, if a seller is selling for 430,
let's just say it's 8%. I don't know
what that is. Let's just say it's 30
somewhere around 30,000 bucks. That
means that they're only going to collect
40 $400,000 and then whatever their
mortgage is. Do you know what their
mortgage is?
>> I do. I can pull that
>> rough estimate.
>> Um gosh 380.
>> Okay. So cool. So their actual equity in
this house is only 20K. >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> Right. It's not 50, which the seller
will think it's 50. >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> Sadly. And then you have to like at the
closing table you're like, "Why am I
only getting $21,800?" was like, "Well,
because we had to pay this off and this
happened and da da." And remember, we
covered this in the listing appointment.
They don't remember, right? >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> So, this seller is an amazing seller for me.
me.
>> And I'll tell you why they're so good
for me.
>> I can come along and go, "Hey, you kind
of have some pain. What's your pain?"
Your pain is you sat in a house for two
years. You put some money down on this
house. I'm sure they put something down.
They've made payments along the way. So,
when you really think about them walking
away with $20,000,
does that even recover the 24 months of
payments of interest that they've paid,
>> that 20 grand means they're probably
walking away with a negative investment
on that property,
>> right? If that makes sense.
>> Yeah. And the money they put into it
with, right, you know, a little bit of
updates. So,
>> yeah, they might have done some things
here and there. So, like really if I
look at that for my client, if I'm the
agent, which I'm not, so don't take my
word for anything, but um you look at
that 20 grand, I look at that, I'm like,
man, you probably lost $20,000 on this
house, right? After receiving that 20
grand over the course of those two
years, you probably lost 20,000 bucks.
Now, of course, you had a baby there and
>> or they're having a baby,
>> you're building a family there, you have
memories there. So, there's value there.
It's not like it was a loss. It's just
like from an investment standpoint, they
actually lost 20 grand. Cool. So
somebody like me comes along and go
perfect. If they bought it two years
ago, they got a great interest rate.
>> There's my value.
>> That's value number one.
>> Number two is if I go to a bank right
now as an investor, okay, which I don't
do. I stopped doing this years ago when
I figured this out. I go to a bank to
buy this house for 430 grand. What does
this look like for me?
>> Well, 430, they're going to ask me for
20% down, something like that. So, I've
got to bring $86,000
to the to title plus my closing costs, right?
right?
Plus, um, you know, first couple months
before I even get a tenant in there. And
I don't think it needs to be painted or
anything. It's probably move in ready. >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> Okay, cool.
>> So, I go this route, but what's my rate
right now? Yeah. My rate as an investor,
if I'm a
>> Oh, investor. Yeah.
>> If I'm living in the house, I'm probably
six and a half to seven and a half. But
if I'm an investor, I'm closer to like 7
and 1 half to eight, right? So let's
just say 7.5. You can already see where
my value is, right? My value. And you're
like, well, what does it mean mean for
my client? I'll get there in a second,
but I can avoid this.
>> Instead of me putting up $86,000 and
getting a horrible interest rate that
won't cash flow.
>> I can't. How can I cash flow at 430 top
of the market with an interest rate? It
kills me. I'll lose $1,000 a month on
cash flow, which is why no investor
wants to buy a house like that, right?
Okay. Now, if rates were three and a
half, you probably would have gotten an
somebody buy this immediately. So, it's
not the price of the house. It's the
affordability. It's the problem. >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> Okay. So, my value is here. My value is
here. I don't want to do this. I don't
want to do this. What's the other
horrible thing about working with a
bank? Are they fast? >> No.
>> No.
>> All loan officers, even your favorite
loan officers, lie. Even the ones you
love, they are full of crap. I was a
loan officer for four years. And yep, we
can do this in 45 days. No, you can't.
And here's the request of things I need
from your client. No, that's not it.
>> You're going to pick and poke and prod
and you're going to ask for a letter of
this. And then after we do all this
stuff, which you do for your client, and
you're sitting there trying to get the
thing done, and you're playing liaison,
and you're doing all this kind of stuff,
your LO or their underwriter, their
processor goes, "Hey, we need seven more
items." You're like, "Bro, what are you
talking about? We gave you literally
everything you asked for." Has this ever
happened to you? >> Yes.
>> Yes.
>> Okay. So, as an investor, do you think
it's better or worse for me as an
investor compared to a homeowner? It's
way worse.
>> Why did you file zero on your taxes?
Because I'm smart.
>> Why did you this? Why did you that? Hey,
this company, we don't understand this o
this ownership you have with this other
partnership. Who is that person? And
what who are they married to?
>> What does that have to do? Well, because
there's seven layers. It's re It's horrible.
horrible.
>> Getting a loan for us as investors is
horrible. So for us, I go, why don't I
just why go get a loan
to pay off a loan? >> Mhm.
>> Mhm.
>> That's dumb.
>> In fact, why buy a loan? Essentially, a
down payment is me buying a loan. Why
would I buy a loan at 7 and a half% just
to pay off her loan at probably three
and a half or whatever it is? Do you
know what it is?
>> Uh, yeah. It's probably I mean, I have
it. I can pull it all up, but
>> somewhere in the threes or fours or
something. Yeah, it's probably in the fours.
fours.
>> Okay, cool.
>> Four and a half maybe.
>> So, I've got let's say even if it's 4
and 1/2 is heck, even if it's five and a half.
half. >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> Is it better than what I'm >> Cool.
>> Cool.
>> The biggest thing is the interest rate
is not so so enticing to me. It's the
purchase price with the interest rate
equals my ability to cash flow.
Purchase price
$86,000 out of pocket plus 7.5%
interest. Am I cash flowing? No. Okay.
So, it's a dead deal. So, investors,
what are they going to do? They're going
to lowball you, as they should, because
that's the only way they can make money.
But as an as an um agent, I'd be like,
"You freaking lowballers." I get I
totally get the frustration that comes
with it. So, I look at that and go,
"That's easy. They can't sell this to an
investor. They can sell this to a retail
buyer, but what's happening right now is
you're if you're not getting activity,
what does that mean?
If 430 is not selling,
>> it's not affordable. doesn't mean the
price is bad. It means that the price
with the interest rates right now is bad
>> and that goes against your ability to
sell the property. It's no knock on you.
It's that's out of your control.
>> So these two things mixed together make
your How long How many days on the
market have you guys been? Not long.
>> We're pretty new. Yeah, we're only like
eight days on market.
>> Okay, cool. So this might not be a good
fit for you. Maybe come somebody comes
along and buys. I think average days on
market's like in the 40s right now, right?
right?
>> It depends on where Valley wide 79, but
>> Okay, cool. That's a lot. That's gone up
a lot. Holy
>> it's way up. Yeah, it's way up. So, all
right. So, if you're at this one because
it's in the median house price of of the
market, you probably somewhere around 60
or something, right? So, maybe I'm not a
good fit for you for 60 days. >> Mhm.
>> Mhm. >> Okay.
>> Okay.
Maybe I am. A lot of agents will go, "My
clients don't wait 60 days to find out.
They just want to get rid of the house.
Can you give them some money?"
>> So, here's what I would do. I come to
them. I come to you guys and go, "Hey,
what's your commissions? Your
commissions are 12K, right? Whatever
that is.
I pay for that, not them. I then come to
the table. I also pay for closing costs,
which is probably another 5K or something.
something.
>> And then, um, I come along and I say,
"Hey, um, this 20k that they're going to
walk away with,
>> depending on how good the rate is. If
the rate's like 2.9%, I'll just give
them all 20 grand right now."
>> If the rate's like five and a half%,
I'll go, "Hey, how can I give you 10
grand now and 10 grand next year?"
>> Right? as I maybe stabilize my rent type
of thing. So, I will then give them
their 20k and in some situations if
their interest rate's good, I'll even
buy it for 445 or 450
>> and I'll go, "Hey, why don't I give you
20 grand now and in 5 years when I
refinance or 5 years when I sell it,
I'll give you another 20 grand as like a
kicker." There's so many ways you can do
this and it really just comes down to
>> one, how do you what does your client
really want to get them excited about
the deal? Mhm.
>> Right. And if you had a crystal ball and
you could go to them and say, "Hey, we
get a cash offer at 4:30. Here's exactly
what you're going to walk away with."
You don't know that. Why? Cuz the bins
are freaking I hate bins, but they're
necessary evil, right?
>> So, somebody could come to you and go,
"Hey, you know the AC, is it a newer house?
house?
>> It's a new house." >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> Okay. So, they shouldn't have a big one.
>> They wouldn't have a lot of
>> Maybe two grand or something.
concessions are like 76% of all
transactions have a median concession of
like 13 14,000.
>> Okay, cool. So,
>> so any buyer is going to ask for
probably 20,000.
>> Okay. So, commissions, concessions, blah
blah blah. You might be more than that
30k and their 20k might not be 20k. It
might be 14k. >> Mhm.
>> Mhm.
>> So, in that situation, if you had a
crystal ball, you knew that that was
going to be the case. You could just
come to me and go, "Hey, let's just skip
all the BS.
>> These guys don't. Here's here's why you
go through somebody like me.
My inspection period
for me, I can't say this for every
investor, my inspection period is me
going to the house. I leave the house,
inspection period's over.
>> Okay, we and we'll write that in the
contract. Um, will I send an inspector
to the property?
I was in construction for 10 years.
What's an inspector going to tell me
that I don't already know? Especially on
a newer house. Like, well, I what I'll
probably do is I'll run like a um quick
set uh test. Like some builders will do
things weird where like they'll have
sinking concrete or they'll have
whatever, but that's like the whole
neighborhood and it's really easy to
know like, "Hey, this is a neighborhood.
You should probably be aware of blah
blah blah."
>> It's so rare that that happens, but it
happens every once in a while. I can do
that on my own. I don't need an
inspector to do that. So, I have would
have no actual real inspection. Guess
what else I don't have?
>> I don't have a benzer. >> Appraisal.
>> Appraisal.
I have no contingencies. I just say,
"Hey, we're closing in six days. I'll
wire all of the money on day one. It'll
sit there at title the whole time.
You're just waiting for the final docks
to be printed and for your client to to
to go forward. So, convenience-wise and
their ability to get more money is 100%
guaranteed. Okay? That's why you would
go with me. The reasons why you wouldn't
go with me are your clients have a
mental hangup of like, well, I want the
loan out of my name. Mhm.
>> That is um the only thing that they ever
worry about or I'm sorry, the only time
they ever worry about that is before we
close escrow.
>> The second we close escrow, they forget
they ever even owned the house.
>> They don't get bothered again. I don't
call them again. I don't ask them for
anything ever again. I have sellers that
I've um bought properties from 11 12
years ago that forgot day one after we
close escrow that they ever sold the
house to me.
>> Out of sight, out of mind type of thing.
So, but every once in a while you'll get
a seller that's like, "No, I just I just
want it out of my name. I'm sick of it.
It's a divorce situation sometimes." I
don't want to ever think about him or I
don't want to think about her ever
again. I want the mortgage out of my
name. I'm like, "Look, I'll do do me a
favor. Let's close escrow and if you
still feel that way 30 days later, we'll
renegotiate. I'll even write in the
contract. We'll renegotiate and I'll
have to sell the house or whatever." And
30 I've never had that happen where
people like But you'll run into that
every once in a while. Another reason
why you wouldn't want to sell to
somebody like me is if you're worried
about the do on sale clause, which
you've been in the business a decent
amount of time. Have your broker maybe
brought this up to you
>> like real estate school like that which
>> they breeze over it. Yeah.
>> Yeah. So,
>> okay. Okay. So, do on sale clause. Can I
break that down for a minute?
>> Am I talking too fast? Would any
questions you have? Okay. So, here's
what'll happen. Here's how it
mechanically works. Okay. So, your We
got the structure here. We understand
this. So, I can erase it. >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> Okay. Okay. So, the way that this would
mechanically work is this would work
where how where do the payments go? Do I
go to their bank? Do I actually like
deposit into their bank? What does that
look like? Because people people have
never done it, so they don't understand
it. Um, we hire a company. The company
we use here locally is um Westar.
Westar is a servicing company and we
literally just have a servicing company
service the agreement between me and the
seller. And so what it looks like is
every month Westar pulls the money out
of my account and then makes the payment
to the bank on my behalf. And so
um let's say here's me. I'm the owner of
the property
pulls the money out of my account.
Westar then goes over to the mortgage company.
company.
They also pay the HOA. They also pay the
taxes. They also pay the insurance. And
if I ever have a private money lender,
which sometimes I will have a private
money lender on the deal, like in second
lean position, like when I first started
out, that let's say 20 grand I got to be
out of pocket to the seller, your
commissions, closing costs. I would
borrow that from a private money lender.
So even that private money lender, that
PML would be in second lean position. My
West Star would pull the money out of my
account 5 days before they're due,
distribute all the money, send everybody
an email saying, "Hey, the payment's
made." So, your seller knows the
payments are made. I don't need even
have access to their mortgage. I don't
need to have access to their online
portal. Is it easier if I I do? It's
kind of nice, but I don't need it. Um,
so that's how it mechanically works. Go ahead.
ahead.
>> What happens if you don't have any funds
in your account? Westar goes to pull it
out of your account. There's no funds.
>> I have to pause and be like, that's
never happened to me. Um I know for like
another investor.
>> I don't know that.
>> Yeah, you don't know that.
>> And our seller wouldn't our original
seller wouldn't know that.
>> Nope. They wouldn't know that. They
would Westar would send an email to
everybody involved. They'd receive an
email that states and now this would
this is fun because the title company
sets up the servicing agreement. So
Westar charges I'm sorry. Westar goes to
the title company. Title company charges
me $150 on the settlement statement to
set up this arrangement. Okay. So
they're the ones that dict like listen
to your input and my input and then they
set up this agreement for West Star to
uphold if that makes sense. So
>> you could tell them I want 10 days
notification before the payment's due if
the account has money in it or not. You
could say I need to know every day. You
could be whatever you want. So in this
situation, the way we have ours set up
is if um ours are always 5 days before.
So let's say the mortgage payment is due
on the 1st. I'm making the payment on
the 25th or the 26th. if it fails to
make the payment, everybody's notified
that I didn't have money in the account
and it becomes a problem. Um,
>> but wouldn't you agree that most
hesitancy on the original sellers's
behalf is that they're thinking, well,
what happens if you default on the pay?
>> Always. It's every every seller asks
that question.
>> That's their pain point. That is a that
is a
>> they don't want to deal with it spoken
or unspoken concern.
>> It's oh, it's always spoken. That's it's
like I'd say it's top two,
>> right? Like what happens if you don't
make the payment?
Um, so what happens if I don't make the
payment? What do you What would you
propose should happen? I do have an
answer, but what would you propose?
>> Well, originally, well, I what it should
be is that they they actually gain full
control back of their original loan
amount. Correct. That gives them the
ability to resell the property.
>> Correct. And they keep all the money.
You keep all the money. Correct.
Everybody keeps all the money. So, I
>> put money up and I lose all of that
money. They get the house back. and the
agreement that we sign not only so we
write obviously we'll write a purchase
and sale agreement but then the title
company or the attorney that's handling
the transaction they'll write the note
and deed of trust right because we'll
we'll actually have a note between the
seller and us that dictates all of these
terms so let's say I'm one day late
let's say I'm 30 days late whatever the
terms are seller gets the deed back and
the seller can do whatever they want
with the property and they keep all my
money so that's how they're protected
>> that make sense Mhm.
>> Pretty simple. Now, some sellers like, I
don't want the house back.
I don't like that. They don't like that
answer. Like, I don't care. I don't want
the house back. I hate this house.
That's not your seller's problem.
>> Your sellers technically, if I gave them
20 grand and I gave you guys commissions
and you got the property back, you'd be
like, "Heck yeah, we got we can go sell
this house again."
>> So, there's a benefit to you for me to
actually default, right?
>> Some sellers have emotional trauma over
their house. They're like, "I don't want
to deal with it. I don't want to think I
have to deal with it. I don't want it
looming over my head. And so what we'll
do is we'll put like three extra months
in the bank account just to make them
know that there's always three months of
buffer there. There's a bunch of things
you can do. So if a seller's overly
worried, I go, "Perfect. I'll just put
three months worth of payments in
there." And the servicing company will
always tell you that there's three extra
months in the bank account. And and we
can do it in a way where if I default
the house payments are all still being
made, so there's no issue with the bank.
you keep all my payments that are in the
escrow account and you take the house
back. You can set it up a whole bunch of
different ways. So, you have you have to
ask the question like what would my what
would I feel comfortable with as an
agent? Tell me. Say, hey, I want three
months of pay. I don't want that. >> Mhm.
>> Mhm. >> Why?
>> Why?
>> Yeah. Because it's more cash out of your pocket.
pocket.
>> It's dead money, right? And when you
>> earning any interest or tax write off.
>> Yeah. And it's a I mean, it's we always
have a buffer anyway on every house. We
always have what we call um we call ours
a war chest. So, every house we have a
little war chest for a broken window or
property management or insurance goes up
or something happens. So, we always have
a buffer um uh a war chest, but you
could tell us like, "Hey, I want three
extra payments." Now, let's say that I'm
doing a deal where I did an RV park last
year. We bought it for 5 million. I gave
the seller $250,000
down. If he came to me, he's like, "Hey,
I want three months of payments." I'd be
like, "Dude, kick rocks. they just gave
you a4 million dollar like what are you
talk like there's every situation is a
little bit different right if your
sellers are getting
you know 15 grand or 20 grand or
whatever it is
they're having a baby chances are those
that chunk of money that's not sitting
in their bank account that's going to
get spent on something they're going to
you know pay off a credit card maybe
it's their you know co-ay or whatever it
is that's going on with the baby I mean
I have four babies and I have great
insurance, but that doesn't mean my
baby's free, right? So, maybe they're
going to use that 15 grand or that 20
grand to pay for these things. Like, I
dude, literally my first baby I ever
had, I'm walking out of the hospital go,
"Okay, we're going to settle up with the
baby." I'm like, "What are what are you
talking about? I got insurance."
>> I go, "Oh, no. This $27,000 thing here
that your insurance is not covering."
So, I had to put that on my AMX. I was
like, "Okay, so like insurance doesn't
cover everything." I imagine your
sellers are going to go, "20 grand comes
to me. Amazing. we can pay off a credit
card and we've got some money for X, Y,
and Z. Maybe they pay off a car or whatever.
whatever.
>> Which means they're not in the situation
that my seller that got the $250,000
got, which he's got plenty of cash. If I
default, he can cover a month or two of
not worrying about it.
>> So, you can always structure that into
the deal of saying, "Hey, when we set up
the servicing agreement, I want three
months of payment that sits there
full-time." And that if you default,
it's not defaulting on three months of
payments. It's default. If you default
one month, we take the escrow account on
the house back and that protects us and
my my client gets three months of
payments made, which gives you guys time
to put it back on the market and go sell
the house again.
>> So, another pain point I think would a
client would have would be their debt to
income ratio and for future purchases.
>> Yeah, this one's a common one, too. So,
>> as a loan officer, this was easy for me
because as a loan officer, I would have
people come to me that were real estate
investors and they're they're making
$80,000 a year, their W2, but they've
got 12 rentals. How is that possible?
>> Well, you've got the income coming in.
>> There you go.
>> But in this case,
>> yeah, they have income coming in. Yeah.
>> But when they have to get
>> Do they really have income coming in?
They have the one time income.
>> They have Westar. This is why we go
through Westar. Westar gives the loan
officer or the underwriter or the
processor of the loan uh whatever. >> Okay.
>> Okay.
>> They give them all the statements
showing that the payments are being made
and debt to income ratio gets removed. Yeah.
Yeah.
>> I was missing that point.
>> It's 75% um in the first year, 100%
after the first 12 months.
>> So, let's say they they already bought a
house, so you don't have this problem,
which is nice.
>> U but let's say they want to go buy
another rental
>> because that's my thing is like, okay,
it for this client specifically, but
like we have a few other listings. It's
like the other one.
>> They have a lot of equity, but they need
that to purchase, you know. Okay. >> So,
>> So, >> yeah,
>> yeah,
>> it's So, in that case, the debt to
income ratio would be an issue and like
they can't just
>> you would think you would think so.
We've ran into it. I ran into it
probably 400 times we've tracked it.
There's not one time that I've not been
able to get them another loan based on
the loan being in their name.
>> So, it's just how we talk to the
underwriter, the processor, and how we
structure this. But the way we structure
it on the front end is um preemptively
setting it up so that they don't have
any issue in the future. So what I
usually do is I have a gentleman in our
community, his name is Matt Bell. He's a
loan officer nationwide. And um if I
paid him, let's say 250 bucks on this
transaction out of my pocket. He would
um call your client, go, "Okay, the way
Pace has set this up, just so you know,
the next loan officer that's going to go
get you a loan will not have an issue
because this and this and this and this
and this." They can get a loan officer
to tell them, "Hey, this has been set up
that your debt to income ratio gets
removed." If that makes sense.
>> I've never seen a person have an issue
with it. I have a lot of people say
they're going to have an issue with it,
but I've never seen somebody actually
have an issue with it.
>> Makes sense.
>> Yeah. It's just, you know, trusting in
that, right? So,
>> I think a lot of sellers are, especially
firsttime sellers are very, you know, >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> they don't know what they're doing or if
they're seasoned sellers, they are going
to be questioning everything. Yeah. And
I, you know, it's interesting because
you've got sellers that have bought a
house before. Yeah.
>> Um, and you would assume if you've never
bought a house before and you're looking
on the outside looking in, you'd be
like, "Dude, they've bought a house
before. What do they they they're pretty savvy."
savvy." >> No,
>> No,
>> no, they're not. They when they buy a
house, I remember as a loan officer,
people are just signing docs. They don't
even ask. They do not care.
>> My payment is this and I own the house.
Cool. Tell me where to sign. >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> Right. So they're not going through and
a lot of the terminology is so brand new
to them is and then when they go to sell
the house, anything they learned two
years ago, oh that was forgotten in two
weeks, right? So um yeah, so trusting.
Same thing with like doing a traditional
real estate transaction. Let's say um
you're trusting that the other buyer is
going to actually not lose their job in
the middle of the transaction and the
all the finances going to fall apart.
>> That's happened before. I guarantee
that's happened to you before.
>> Cool. You sometimes you got to trust and
watch what happens, right?
>> You guys deal with that all the time.
Crap. We just we took it off the market.
We lost momentum. Now we have to put it
back on the MLS and people are going to
go, "What's wrong with the house?" >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> Nothing's wrong with the freaking house.
This person screwed us on. They lost
their job. Or their loan officer, this
happens to us frequently when we're
doing refinances. The loan officer says,
"We can close escrow by such and such
day and they can't." Right? You're
trusting even in traditional real
estate, you're trusting people to do
their job, and a lot of times they just
don't. So, the way you do this and
protect yourself is you just put stuff
in the paperwork and make sure that
there's protections there, which you can
do in non-traditional real estate, you
can't really do that. Think about this.
You could do this if you did on every
single house that you sold to a
traditional buyer. Hey, if you can't
close and you have a weird thing that
pops up that even if it's not your
fault, you got to write a check for 20
grand. Wouldn't that be great?
>> You could do that. >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> Guess what? We do that in in tra
non-traditional real estate. In
traditional real estate, that's fighting
a really big uphill battle, right? I
think most of the time if it's not this
buyer's fault, they have no The only
thing they lose is their EMD. >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> Which is what, 3,000 bucks? Something
stupid. Not worth your time, not worth
your seller's time. For us,
you could set it up of like, well, if
you're not going to clo Well, who what
would prevent us from closing? >> Um,
>> Um,
I mean, hip bursting in the house. I'm
thinking of something crazy, right?
>> But that would be the seller's fault,
not yours as the buyer. Um,
>> yeah, we've had weird stuff. We've had
stuff where like a day after we close
escrow, hot water heater bursts or
whatever else. Um, and I've never had a
seller. I've never gone back to a seller
for any of that stuff. Like I'm an
investor. There's things that happen.
There's things that I can't see.
>> U, there's things that people hide
>> and we'll find them. And it's always
like $5,000 per house. >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> Okay, cool. So, I could beat up the
seller on every transaction and beat up
the agent on every transaction. Or I
could just say that's part of my
acquisition cost on every single house
and just make my life easy.
>> Because for you, if you and I do this
deal or any other deal, here's what'll
happen. You'll close escrow with me and
you'll go, "Oh my gosh, that was by far
the easiest transaction I've ever done."
Creative finance is a thousand. That's
an exaggeration. It's literally five
times easier than a traditional real
estate transaction. Mhm.
>> It's new terminology, but you remove
seven different people from the
transaction. There's no loan officer,
there's no underwriter, there's no
processor, there's no appraiser, no inspector,
inspector,
right? There's none of these people
involved in the transaction. It is
literally the title company or a closing
attorney depending on the state. Do a
lot in in Georgia as well. So, they do
closing attorney and we can go through a
closing attorney here if we wanted to
for whatever reason. And sometimes
sellers like, "I don't trust a title company."
company."
Like, "Okay, well, I'm buying title insurance."
insurance." >> Mhm.
>> Mhm.
>> I'm paying for all the things. Yeah, I
still don't trust them. Cool. We can go
through a closing attorney here, too.
And you can say, "What are my concerns?
I'm concerned that you'll default."
Great. Let's put three months in escrow.
I'm concerned that what was the other
one? Um,
>> that they can't qualify for that.
>> They want to go buy a a car in two in a year.
year.
>> Yeah. The only one I can do for you is
like I can show you sellers I've closed
on the last couple of weeks or a couple
of months that were in the process of
buying a house and their original loan
loan originators told them you have to
sell house A in order to qualify for
house B. I get under contract with them
on class or house A. And then I call the
underwriter and I call the team. I go,
"Hey guys, we're setting up with Westar.
Here's the servicing agreement. Here's
the paperwork." And they go, "Oh." Then
they remove the DTI and they approve the
person. I can put you in touch with like
the loan officer that does all that kind
of stuff.
>> Um, you don't have to worry about that
on this transaction, but I can put you
in touch with those people because you
you shouldn't trust me. You should trust
the people have done the work.
>> Um, out of all the 50 people I have in
here, not one of them is a loan officer.
So, sadly, u, but I can put you in touch
with them.
>> So, if they because your name's on the
deed, but their name's still on the
mortgage, right? So, that DTI, but
>> because of course there's like the
investor loans, right? that like we've
had on our listings where somebody's
purchasing it for an investment and so
then you have an appraiser out there
that has to appraise for rents and make sure
sure
>> Yeah. DSCR loan. Yeah.
>> Yeah. The what is it?
>> DSCR. DSCR. That's right. Um
>> you know, obviously those have a
different interest rate than a
traditional sale. 8%.
>> So, I just want to make sure on like the
seller like if they go to purchase that
they wouldn't consider this still any
property. So, they would be charged a
higher interest rate. No, it's they're
they're going into a primary residence, right?
right?
>> Okay. That's what I figured. I'm just
making sure I'm like
>> No, you're good.
>> Hitting every box.
>> It's a good box. I actually don't get
that one too often of like, "Hey, I buy
my next one." Now, if they bought it and
it wasn't going to be their primary,
then yeah, they're going to pay. Yeah.
But if they're buying it for their
primary and they can prove it's their
primary, then they're good.
>> So, they're going to say, "Well, what's
>> That doesn't make sense, though, in a
traditional financing route. I would
never buy a traditional piece of real
estate ever again. Once you know this,
you're like, why would I ever do that?
>> Yeah, but the seller is gonna say, well,
this doesn't make sense. Why? How are
you gonna make money?
>> Oh, how am I going to make money? Well,
we can get to that, but like how I avoid
all the all of this.
>> This saves me money. I can tell you how
I make money.
>> I make a lot of money,
>> but they're going to wonder.
>> Yeah, I'll and I'll tell you all the
I'll break it all down. Yeah.
>> Yeah. I think that's what I asked you.
>> But this one, we we're on the same page
here, right? >> Yes.
>> Yes.
>> Yes. Um, I had a quick question. Oh, the
loan is still in their name. So,
>> for that lender.
>> Yep. Do on sale clause. Yeah. Do on sale clause.
clause.
>> Okay. Is that what Cuz again, I don't
remember what that even means, but it's
like essentially the bank finds out that
it's not their primary, right? So, now
it's mortgage fraud. And
>> it's not mortgage fraud.
>> Well, but like it's kind of like
>> it's a breach of contract.
>> Okay. So, I just like getting into that.
It's a breach of contract with with this
with the bank and it is a civil it's a
civil thing. It's not there's no fraud.
There's no prison time. There's none of
that stuff. I've had we've probably done
5,000 of these transactions. I also own
a title company in 43 states. We do this
all over the country.
>> And when I first started doing this
about 12 years ago, I hired the um team
that wrote the DoddFrank Act. I I I
hired the right attorneys for all this
stuff. Um this is what's cool about this
business. It's been around for a long
time. I wish I was the one that invented
it. I think we've perfected the
processes a lot more, but like if you
look at um IRS, the IRS publication, it
shows you exactly how to do a sub2 deal
where we take over, we take the deeds,
keeps it in their name, how to okay,
hey, if you sold your house this way,
here's how you file your taxes, right?
So IRS instructs you how to do it. Um
HUD on the HUD web web page, here's how
to set uh here's how to write the
contracts. Here's how the settlement
statement should look. Here's how all
these things work. Um, here's how Fanny
May educates you on how to do this.
>> Um, more IRS stuff. Anyway, these are
all the way the places all over the
internet of all your guys' regulators,
the people that regulate your business.
All of these places are um places that
show you how to do this the right way.
>> So, there's no fraud. However, there is
a breach with the bank. Okay. So, the
bank says, "Hey, you're going to live in
the house. We trust that you're not
going to sell the house without paying
us off." Right? So, when I I knew this
was going to come up, it's always a very
common thing. If you buy at sub two,
what sub two means is that your seller,
let's say this is your seller here,
here,
right? And your seller has two things.
They have a debt,
which is also known as their mortgage.
They also have another document,
which is their ownership document, which
is their deed. Mhm.
>> Right. Those are two completely
different documents, right? Like right
now, your mom could deed her property to
you through a quick claim deed in two
seconds at the county recorder's office.
You don't you don't even need a title company.
company.
>> So, you can do this legally. Okay?
You're not committing fraud. You're just
saying, "Hey, I'm deeding my property to
my daughter." Your thought is like,
"Wait, how do you do that when there's a
debt in place?" Well, they're not even
the same document whatsoever. They're
not tied to each other whatsoever.
They're not linked to each other. They
don't trigger one over the other. The
seller owns the property through the
deed. It's just that they have a debt
against the property, right? Okay, cool.
So, what happens is I come along and I
say, "Hey, I'd like to buy that property
sub two, which means the deed goes into
my name." So, county recorders office
shows I could go to Maropa County
Recorders website and see my name on the
deed and then I'm paying me I'm paying
the mortgage through a servicing company.
company.
That's sub two. Okay,
sub two means the deed stays in or deeds
comes to me. They keep the mortgage
ownership in their name. And people that
have a really big problem with this do
on sale clause. These are usually
brokers that have been in the business
for like 20 30 years like, "Oh my gosh,
I can't we can't mess with the do on
sale clause." I'm like, "Okay,
I've done this 5,000 times and I have
had the do on sale clause calling me 10
times. I know exactly what happens and
I've never lost a house or ever had a
problem with it." And the reason being
is because we know what to do. Okay. But
if you worry about the do on sale
clause, okay,
the way that a transaction will work,
you know what a lease option is, right?
I lease the property with an option to
buy the property, right? Okay. So,
here's another way you can set this up.
If you're worried about the do on sale
the way you set this up is the seller of
the property does not sell the property
to me. they lease it to me. Okay? And
the way we structure that lease is that
all the payments that I make go to the
bank rather than the than to your seller.
seller.
>> So I don't have to worry about because
that's an issue I ran into 12 years ago.
I would give money to the seller. >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> And they weren't paying the payment. >> Oh,
>> Oh,
>> that happens.
>> So we would still go through a star. All
of this still happens.
>> The only difference is this. So your
seller has the house. Your seller sells
the prop doesn't sell the property to
me. We sign a lease agreement.
Okay. So, I lease the property and the
terms of that lease say, "Hey, if you
pay your lease on time,
we'll give you an option to buy the property."
property."
That option could be, it's two separate
documents. This option could be 2 days,
6 months, 5 years, 7 years, 12 years.
Doesn't matter. In Arizona, you can do
whatever amount of time you want. The
option is, hey, we're g we'll give you
an option to buy it for 430. See how
we're still buying it for 430 or
whatever it is. And in order to have
that option, you have to buy that
option. I have to buy that document from
you. How much is my purchase to buy the option?
option?
Your commissions, sellers 20 grand,
closing costs. That means I come in
with, let's say, 30K for that, whatever
that number is. That's that's what we
would call my option fee, which means I
now have the right to buy this house
from you at some point in the future.
What does this do for your seller? Well,
it does kind of all the same things for me,
me,
but your seller keeps the deed in their
name and they keep the owner they keep
the debt in their name and the ownership
in their name in just in case I default
and also to avoid the do on sale clause
100%. There is no do on sale clause if
the deed stays in their name, right? So,
it seems like a much safer option for a
for a seller that's weary.
>> It's safer, but it's annoying. >> Yeah,
>> Yeah,
>> it's annoying from the standpoint of
like they still have to kind of be
involved a little bit a just a smidge.
>> And then it's also annoying for me in
five years that I have to now execute my
option with them and I have to call them
and go, "Hey, remember how I've been
paying for the last seven years to Westar?
Westar?
>> Well, I want to execute my option now."
And they're like, "Who are you? Wait,
that house still exists?" >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> Right. Right. So I got to call them or
get a hold of them. The downside to me
is what if they pass away now I got to
go through their heirs. It's a pro. I
got to do it's easier for them just for
the do on sale clause situation which is
kind of the boogeyman. It does it exists
but not really.
>> I prefer sub two because then they never
have to talk to me again. I never have
to talk to them again. It's clean. It's
done. Lease option. I might have to go
back to them in five years or seven
years and I prefer not to. I don't think
they want me to either. Right. Also,
agreement for sale very similar. Okay.
In state of Arizona, this is in
continued education, but nobody ever
talks about it. We probably do a dozen
of these a year. Okay. If I don't go sub
two, I prefer to go to agreement for
sale. Okay. Have you heard of like
contract for deed or land contract? You
ever heard of those? We don't call them
that in this state. In other states,
they call them land contract, contract
for deed, bond for deed, all sorts of
different things. But in Arizona, it's
called an agreement for sale. Okay? And
all it is is that um Okay. Have you ever
bought a C car for cash? >> No.
>> No.
>> Mom, you ever bought a car cash and you
got the title? >> Yes.
>> Yes. >> Okay.
>> Okay. Um
Um
who's the owner? Like you go give a car
cash, you now have the title in your
hand, the physical title. You you know
the manila one. Mhm.
>> Who owns the Who owns the car if you
haven't recorded it at the MVD?
>> The original. >> Incorrect.
>> Incorrect. >> Really?
>> Really? >> Yep.
>> Yep.
>> If I haven't recorded it yet.
>> Yeah. You don't need to record it. I
mean, think about tit title company
recorders office. Have they always existed?
existed?
They've only been around for like 92
years. So, what happened before 92 years
was a thing?
>> That piece of paper.
>> It's just a piece of paper.
The only thing the recorder's office
does for us is record the document as a
safe haven for us. It doesn't make it
doesn't make the transaction legit. It
just allows us to record the document.
>> Whoever is holding the piece of paper
>> whoever holds the piece of paper. So you
hold the pink slip or whatever people
would call it.
>> You're the owner whether you record it
or not. >> Okay.
>> Okay.
>> Could I then sell that car to the next person?
person? >> Yes.
>> Yes. >> Yeah.
>> Yeah. >> And
>> And
>> give them
>> just hand the paper to them. I never had
to record it. I never had to create a
separate document. I never even had to
sign anything. If you remember, this
will be hard to remember, but when you
sign on a title,
when you buy a car, do you sign the
title or does the seller sign it?
>> I was like, my husband just sold his
car, but it was paid off.
>> Only the seller.
>> So, he signed the title, hands it over.
>> Yeah. And then, yeah, it can go through
like the DMV and stuff.
>> Yeah, he could. >> Right.
>> Right.
>> Or that next buyer that your husband
just sold it to
>> That's right. could repaint it, get new
tires, sell it for $1,000 more, and just
hand that same piece of paper to the
next person. >> Okay,
>> Okay,
>> that's called an agreement for sale. >> Okay,
>> Okay,
>> in other states, it's like contract for
deed, bond for deed, blah, blah, blah.
Stupid names, but
>> this is a real estate school coming back
to say,
>> and these are like the weird
transactions that we actually do. >> Yeah,
>> Yeah,
>> I will do this agreement for sale.
Here's where I do these all the time. So,
So,
the I don't care if the mortgage finds out.
out.
>> Mhm. It's so rare that that's even an
issue. And even if they do find out, um,
I have a way to solve it.
>> Okay. And it's takes five minutes. So
easy. But do you understand why lease
options are I don't want to do a lease option.
option.
>> Cool. Good way to go. Like if this if I
can't overcome the seller's objection on
the sub two, lease options a good way to
go. I prefer to go sub two
>> agreement for sale. Okay. Here's what's
great about these is I can avoid other
things besides the mortgage company. Who
else would I be worried about? This
one's a hard one. And when I say it,
you're going to be, "Oh, dang."
>> Heirs or something or
>> No, cuz I like I I've had sellers that
I've bought things on seller finance and
then they die. >> Uhhuh.
>> Uhhuh.
>> And then their heirs take over the note.
So that payment that I keep making, they
just take over the payment. So they
can't take the property from me. I own
it, right? So I'm not worried about heirs.
heirs. HOAs
HOAs
>> and down payment assistance. So, think
about this. Have you guys ever had a
seller do a down payment assistance?
>> I I have not. Um,
>> usually it's like starting homeowners or
something, right?
>> I was like, we've never executed one, but
but
>> Okay. So, cities like municipalities
like Mesa or Tempe or whatever, they
have a fund that they help sellers or
I'm sorry, homeowners buy houses with
down payment assistance. I'm sure you're
aware of it. Mhm.
>> And what happens is they have a
regulation in their down payment
assistance because the state is like,
"Look, we're going to give state funds
to help people get into home ownership,
>> but we don't want people buying these
homes and then selling them two years
later because the market went up and
then going and renting."
>> So, they have stipulations like if you
sell between this time,
>> five years.
>> Yeah. You pay it back.
>> The the lowest I've seen is five years. >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> Okay. Well, crap happens in people's
lives in five years, right? divorce or a
job relocation or I got deployed or
whatever, right? So, they get into these
situations similar to your seller.
Imagine if you your seller bought their
house two years ago, has very little
equity if anything. They get deployed
and they bought it with down payment assistance.
assistance.
>> What down payment assistance says is,
hey, if you sell it, you have a $50,000 penalty.
penalty.
>> Okay. Well, how do I avoid that
agreement for sale? So, um, last one I
did was a property on Southern Avenue in
Mesa. The guy bought it, good interest
rate, similar situation. He went to go
sell it on the retail market, couldn't
sell, you know, long days on market. He
his agent got fired because it was now 6
months. I called him on an expired
listing. Hey, I'll buy your house. You
know, I'm an actual buyer.
And he's like, I I tell him what we do.
He says, by the way, I never explained
this to any You How many agents have
been in here and learned this from me?
>> Zero. So, you just ask really good
questions like, "Hey, let's hang out."
Um, I mean, I talk to agents over the
phone, but this is way more preferred,
honestly, because you get a full
education like, "Wait, are there other
ways I can make money?"
>> There are probably, you guys work
primarily on referral.
>> Yeah. So, if you were an agent team that
was like newer and you didn't have a
good rolodex and you didn't have a good
database, I would tell you call expired
listings and I'll buy one a day from
you. Mhm.
>> Because if you're calling, you know,
there's 40 expired listings a day on
average in Maroba County. Out of those
40, there's one to 10 people out of
those 40 that are like, "Yeah, I'll sell
on seller finance. I'll get the number I
want, though.
>> I'll buy those from you all day long."
So, you could do a deal a day with me,
right? Um anyway, so agreements for
sales are used when here's what here's
the only thing that happens.
The difference between a lease option
and a sub 2. We understand that. Now,
the difference between all of those and
an agreement for sale is the ownership
document, which is the deed, the seller
signs off on it, and that ownership
document sits in a safety deposit box.
So, it's been signed off on. I just
don't mess with it. I don't touch it,
and I don't record it.
And the reason I wouldn't record it is
because if I record it now, it's on
county recorder office and the bank can
see that I'm now the new owner of the
property and they come in and go, "Hey,
pay off our loan." Okay. Um,
>> don't you record
through the sub two or
>> you record in sub two? Yeah.
>> But the bank doesn't like what you just
said, the bank isn't flagged and like, hey,
hey,
>> agreement for sale is not recorded.
>> A lease option is not a sale
technically. So these do not trigger do
on sale clause.
>> Sub two does record.
>> I prefer to go this route because it's
the cleanest and I don't ever have to
talk to the seller again.
>> Okay. But the mortgage companies, that's
when you're like, that's
>> it's so rare. Yeah. And I'll show you um
my latest I think I have it in here. My
latest do on sale clause letter. I think
Okay, here it is. Cool. Yes, this is awesome.
awesome.
Didn't think I'd have it.
Okay, so this is a property in San
Angelo, Texas. The last one I got was
about a year and a month ago and this is
what it looks like. They ma go Gosh dang it.
So in my notes I'm like I'm going to
need this at some point. So here is the letter
letter
>> and basically what that letter is is
it's a auto thing that comes from the
bank. They send me a letter and it's a
demand to give them a response within 35 days.
days.
Why did this house get sold and the
mortgage not get paid off? We demand an
answer in 35 days.
>> So, are they c it's they don't have the
obligation to take the house from me? >> Mhm.
>> Mhm.
>> But in order for them to take the house
back from me through the do on sale um
clause, what do they have to do?
>> Go through the whole
>> they have to foreclose on me. >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> So, in order for them to for the bank to go,
go,
>> we're upset that this didn't get paid
off and the transfer of the ownership happened,
happened,
>> they would have to now foreclose on me
to take the house back. Are banks in
business to take houses back? >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> They're not.
>> Oh, sorry.
>> They just want to lend money. >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> Right. And it's kind of the same thing
with like um agents that are doing the
um reos.
>> Even the banks that have to take the
houses back, they they're like, "We
don't want to deal with that." And they
just give it to agents. Right.
>> But as long as the mortgage is being paid,
paid,
>> they don't care. No.
>> I was going to say there's no evidence
of default on payment. >> Correct.
>> Correct.
>> And does this affect the original seller
in any way? >> Zero.
>> Zero.
>> It's a demand letter. Yeah. because
they're still on the mortgage. >> No,
>> No,
>> the letter comes to me because I'm the
owner. Doesn't go to the seller and it's
just a letter that was autoprinted from
some software that says give give us we
want a reply back in 35 days. All the
I've had the do on sale clause happen to
me 10 times.
>> It's always the exact same letter almost
like the all mortgage companies got a
meeting together and we're like this is
what our letter should look like. >> Okay.
>> Okay.
>> So, I've had it happen. We call the
bank. Eight times out of 10 we just go,
"Hey, yeah, we're the new owner. We
bought it sub 2." They're like, "Oh,
okay. Cool. Sounds good. Um, can you do
up can you update this or can you update
that and who's on the insurance and we
send them a copy of the insurance? We
are we're the ones on the insurance. >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> Um, and can you give us this and this
and who's the servicing company? Blah
blah blah. We give it to them eight
times out of 10. Every once in a while
you get a bank that's like, "Hey, we
hate that." It's usually a really small
bank like Johnston Bank was the last
time that this happened to me. And I go,
"I'll just convert it back to a lease
option. Are you okay with that?" You go,
"Yeah, okay, cool. That's fine." and we
just convert it back to a lease option.
>> So, I can always unravel a sub two. How
do I unravel a sub two? I literally take
the deed, transfer it back to the
seller, and we set up a lease option
transaction. That takes two hours to do.
>> Do you do a quick claim?
>> I don't like quick claims, so I like to
go through title and like make sure that
there's a warranty deed transfer.
>> You do a warranty at zero.
>> Yeah. Okay.
>> I mean, I we'll do a quick claim if I'm
the one that owns the property and I
know there's nothing on it. >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> But if I'm buying on a quick claim, I'm
like, "No, I want to go through a full
title." I I prefer to do that. >> Okay.
>> Okay.
>> Um but if somebody's like, "Hey, we need
to deed it back to the seller real fast."
fast."
>> I will do a quick claim because I
already I'm the owner. I already know. >> Okay.
>> Okay.
>> Um and
so that's how you overcome it. I've
never seen a single problem. I've never
heard of one person ever losing a house
to the do on sale clause. I've heard
about it.
>> They bring it up in class. I went to
real estate school for the two two weeks
>> and then my friend called me. He's like,
"Hey, what are you doing today? I
grabbed lunch." I'm like, "Dude, I just
finished real estate school." He's like,
"Yeah, don't do that.
uh you want to flip houses, right? I go,
"Yeah, I want to flip houses." He's
like, "Getting your license doesn't mean
you're going to go flip houses." And I
that's what I thought was my my way. But
I was when I was in real estate school,
I'm like, "This this what I need to know
to be a real estate agent."
>> And they brought up do on sale clause
and land plotting and all sorts of
stuff. I'm sure you don't use any of
that stuff at all. >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> But this the do on sale clause is
brought up as if it's a real thing, and
it is. It's just
>> minuscule. And when it does get brought
up, you get a letter, you go, "Okay,
well," you call them up. Like Jade on my
team, she would call up the bank,
tell them what's going on, and then they
would come back and go, "Okay, sounds
good." Or they go, "Nope, we're still
unhappy about it. Needs to be fixed or
else we're going to foreclose." We go,
"Okay, no problem. Deed goes back, show
them proof that the deed's back, and
then we set it back up as a lease
option." I was actually taught how to do
that from Johnston Bank. The um they
only had six branches. So, I talked to
the owner of the bank. He's like, "Oh,
yeah. We have tons of people buy sub."
He's like, "Just do it as a lease
option." And I was like, "Well, I would
do a lease option, but he was like,
yeah, let me guess. You got to call the
seller back." And he goes, "Yeah, yeah,
it it sucks, but like if you're going to
buy through a small bank, just go
through a lease option instead of a sub two."
two."
>> We still just do sub two, though,
because it's so rare.
>> Do you ever do assumable loans?
>> I hate assumable. And I think sellers
shouldn't do them either because what
happens is the seller gets underwritten again.
again. >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> Right. So, the bank that's doing the
assumption, how long do they take? They
don't. They're not four months. >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> Sometimes they're five or six, >> right?
>> right?
>> They're horrible.
>> Yeah. And people act like they're like
God's gift to the real estate world. I'm
like, guys, your seller has to be
underwritten again. And your seller, if
you look at the loan docs, your seller
is still on the hook if that person >> default
>> default >> defaults.
>> defaults.
>> And people do not understand that
entirely and they go, "Well, I'm still
I'm still a guarantee on this." And
they're like, "No, no, no." They get
detached. No, you're selling the
property to them. They are assuming your
obligation. If you fail on the
obligation, it will trigger back on that
next person. Mhm.
>> And not only that, it takes five to six
months to go through it and it's a headache.
headache. >> Mhm.
>> Mhm.
>> So I we just avoid it at all costs.
>> So I know we talked a little bit. So
like what's your
>> you want to see how I make money?
>> Well, yeah. How you make money and then
like what what's your stipulations when
there's a sale to be had? Like do you
only look for properties like this or
that can be rented for a certain
percentage above the
>> Okay. Have this has this been good? Has
you learned some stuff?
>> Yeah, sure. That sounds like
>> we're asking all the questions and
there's a whole room.
>> Well, they most of them have who's done
a sub two deal in here.
>> There you go. So, most they're all like this.
this.
>> They're from all over state. Don't worry
about it.
>> Kyle does them all the Kyle probably
does five a month now. I don't know. But
Kyle, you primarily here in Arizona.
>> So, we're about eight different states,
but mostly in Arizona.
>> And you're he's direct to seller through mail.
mail.
>> So, we do we do a lot of and direct to
agent, too.
>> Okay. Yeah, we do both. Um,
Um,
>> we just bought a house just like they
were trying to do an assumption. Took 10 months.
months.
>> My gosh.
>> The buyers got so frustrated. This is in
Gilbert. Yeah.
>> The buyers got so frustrated they left
>> and so then they called me and we bought
it 30 days later. >> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> Assumptions. I we um and when you go
commercial like multif family and RV
parks, which we do a lot of those, too.
Oh my gosh. the assumption process is so
bad and that the assumption process
they'll go to the owner of the RV park
and go I we want all the financials of
your other companies that aren't even
related to the RV park. So assumptions
are they seem cool they sound cool then
when you get into them and it's 10
months later it's like okay this is
horrible. Um okay so the ways I make
money are plentiful.
lots of different ways and I'll I'll
give you like a generic thing and then a
specific thing. So the ways I make money
are one cash flow obviously
two future appreciation obviously
three this one's the big one that most
people don't realize
>> taxes depreciation this one is huge for
me so I was mentioning this I think over
the phone to you for 430 so like even if
this property does not cash flow
>> I will make money in my first two years
on it. Okay, how is that possible? So,
let's say I buy it for 430 grand.
The IRS does not care if I put money in
my own pocket out. They do not care
whose money it is. They just care that
I'm now the owner of the property. Okay?
So, what the IRS will do, let's do the
um
take your purchase price and and
multiply it by 7. And the reason why
it's 7 is because the IRS doesn't want
you to depreciate land. And so what they
assume is that 30% of this is the the land.
land.
So you can only depreciate 70% of it. So
the amount of money that I get to now
play with is $31,000
on this deal, which is pretty cool. So
now here's the equation of how I save my
money. So out of $31,000 the IRS says we
will let you
take 27 and 12 years of tax benefit off
this property. So I'm going to round up.
It's n it's $10,945.
I'm just going to say $11,000.
>> So they said what again?
>> Okay, this is great. This is great. This
is this was something that was really
hard for me to understand when I first
learned this. So the IRS came up with
their own equation, their own algorithm.
>> And that algorithm says you bought this
house for 430 pace.
>> We believe that in 27 and a half years,
if you don't do any repairs, any
maintenance, nothing, it will be worth
nothing. It will fall apart. It will be
dust on the ground. So we're going to
give you increments to make sure that
your repairs are essentially covered
over the next 27 and a half years. Does
that make sense?
>> Yes. So they're completely devaluing I
So they depreciate it to the point of
zero for a
>> they're not saying the house they're not
saying the house is worth nothing.
They're saying we assume you're going to
have to pay for repairs
>> and we want to give you fe we want to
give you benefits against those repairs
every single year.
>> Kind of like how appraisers depreciate for
for
>> like ages.
>> There you go. Just like that. So they're
saying so every house is going to be a
little bit different. Yeah. like a older
house, you're going to get a big chunk
of depreciation. >> On a brand new house, you'll get a
>> On a brand new house, you'll get a little bit less. Um, but they're
little bit less. Um, but they're basically looking at the property going,
basically looking at the property going, "Okay, what are your future repairs?
"Okay, what are your future repairs? Let's divide that out." And the IRS,
Let's divide that out." And the IRS, that's not my number. I didn't make that
that's not my number. I didn't make that up. My my um tax man didn't make that
up. My my um tax man didn't make that up. It was the IRS that says,
up. It was the IRS that says, >> "Okay,
>> "Okay, >> you buy a property, divide it into 27
>> you buy a property, divide it into 27 and a half years."
and a half years." >> Okay.

more about getting over the fear. But what I what I'll say about agents giving

them a lot of credit is agents are getting paid to get the deal done.
getting paid to get the deal done. >> And so they're like meeting you at the

I when I'm working with an agent, if I run to the 50 yard line, I have to wait
run to the 50 yard line, I have to wait for the agent to come to the 50 yard

line. If I'm working with a seller, I can run direct all the way all 100 yards

>> So in some situations when the agent meets you in the middle and wants to
meets you in the middle and wants to work the deal, it makes the whole
work the deal, it makes the whole situation better. And that's better for
situation better. And that's better for a newbie because a newbie is like,
a newbie because a newbie is like, "Okay, I don't know all the
"Okay, I don't know all the terminology." And the agents are smart
terminology." And the agents are smart enough to pick on up on that really
enough to pick on up on that really quickly. like, "Okay, well, let me fill
quickly. like, "Okay, well, let me fill in the blanks and let me do this and let
in the blanks and let me do this and let me help you out." And they have a TC
me help you out." And they have a TC usually and they can fill out the
usually and they can fill out the contracts and all that kind of stuff.
contracts and all that kind of stuff. But for building a real estate business,
