588: Is This BETTER Than Rentals?
from The DealMachine Real Estate Investing Podcast · host Jack, David Lecko
Owner financing turns a house into mailbox money, and Jack has built his entire one man portfolio around it instead of renting. He explains how a contract for deed actually works, from the 10 percent down payment that keeps a buyer invested to the single foreclosure he has filed in 20 years. He also walks through the four house package he just put under contract in Lancaster, South Carolina for $450,000 that appraised at over $700,000.
