Creative Financing Solutions
I.Rent-to-Own: Rent-to- own arrangements allow you to rent a property with the option to purchase it in the future. This can be a great way to get into a home in a competitive market, particularly if you're not in a position to buy outright.
2. Down Payment Assistance: There are many programs available to help first-time buyers and low-income individuals secure down payment assistance. Check with your local housing authority to see what options are available to you.
4.Mortgage Assistance Programs that are backed by the U.S. government are also low-risk, and many come with low or even no down payment requirements including FHA loans, VA loans for active duty military and
veterans, and rural USDA loans
3.Co-Buying: Consider buying a home with a
family member or friend to share the costs and responsibilities of homeownership. Just be sure to carefully consider the legal and financial implications of this arrangement before proceeding.
5.Piggy Back Mortgage This approach includes two mortgage loans with two different interest rates, payments, and closing costs. Often referred to as 80/10/10 loans because you get one loan for 80 percent of the purchase price and one for 10 percent, with the other 10 percent
paid as the down payment.
