Purchasing Homes At Appraised Value

AncientLandMark profile photo

If I purchase a house as a primary residence for 30k and it was appraised for 60k, can I make a mortgage purchase for the appraised value of 60k, and use the remaining funds for rehab and my personal business?

    Greetings markmortgage,

    As Neutral indicated, there are actually quite a few lenders that will do them. And some will even do them with stated income.

    But as you might imagine, a lot of them just package the loan and re-sell it. So, take a close look at their programs and see who they are selling to, and just go directly to who is buying them – you’ll get better rates.

    I do loans for investors all over the U.S., and sometimes these programs work great for their particular situation. Other times they don’t, and you would do your clients a service by steering them away from them. So, just have some other good options at the ready.

    If you are a broker, you may want to register at these sites. There’s a lot of good information.

    Hello All-
    100% financing of investment property is very much available. The key to this is finding a broker that understands these types of loans. There are many "gotchas" that go along with this type of financing, where even with a pre-approval from an AE, you will get caught up in underwriting with, # of properties owned, # of properties financed, rapid acquisition, negative cash flow on the subject property, 6 months in reserves, etc.

    I work with 100s of investors and have a lot of experience with these loans...Its basically all I do, so if anyone has any specific questions about these types of loans, please feel free to contact me.

    regards/neutral

    I have only bought mortgages (trust deeds) in California so just know that foreclosure laws & procedures vary by state.


    The difficulty to foreclose on someone varies by state. There are basically 2 most common types of foreclosure actions. In Florida it is a judicial . Which basically means you have to file a complaint through the court system. Also, FYI Florida allows the foreclosed party 5 months to redeem after the foreclosure sale.

    I would have the current mortgagor sign & notarize an affidavit as to the payments received & delinquency.

    Your only legal option to get the property if they reinstate & bring the loan current is to buy the property from them.

    You will have to speak to an attorney in Florida that handles judicial foreclosure to get an idea on cost.

    If you are looking to broker the note, there are sources of note buyers on papersource (google it) that might give you more information.

    I hope this helps

    Good Luck

    Oops sorry for the redemption period error. I had the redemption period & process time mixed up. The foreclosure process in Florida takes 135 days & there is no redemption.

  • linlin17th January, 2006

    First look at the owner mortgage agreement. If these folks have not paid in 2 years a foreclosure here will be fairly straightforward.
    Sounds like a good deal providing all heirs sign off.

    If you do this deal or if you decide to pass, let me know. I am interested depending on circumstances
