Even in these uncertain times, the real estate market is booming. But what if I told you that the most valuable resource for real estate investors isn't their cash or their credit? It's creativity! That's right, creativity can lead to some of the best deals on investment properties that are out there today. With so many different financing options available, (like seller financing or lease options, or “subject to” to name a few,) it can seem like an uphill battle at times to find one that fits your needs (or your seller’s needs,) – but don't worry, we've got you covered! In this interview, we explore some of the strategies in creative financing, real estate investing expert trainer Matt Theriault (host of the Epic Real Estate Investing Podcast) uses…and why you should be using them too.
