4 Top Financing Options for Flipping Houses in Elko, NV
Flipping houses can cost money. Here
are 4 top financing options for flipping houses to help you get started.
Use one, some, or all of these financing options to acquire all the investment
properties you want to flip!
If you’re thinking about investing
in real estate, you have several options… you can rent, rent-to-own, wholesale,
flip, and many other options as well! If you’re thinking about flipping, you’re
probably looking to acquire an investment property and then fix it up to sell
at a higher price. If so, here are 4 top financing options for flipping houses…
Flipping
Finance Option #1
You can get a traditional bank
loan from a mortgage loan lender like a bank or mortgage company. These are
usually similar to the traditional mortgage loan that you might get for your
residence: you pay a down payment and “use your credit score” to borrow the
rest. Unlike your residential mortgage, you would sell the house to a buyer and
then pay off the mortgage quickly.
The biggest drawback to this method
is that you can usually only get a few mortgages in your name at once before
the banks won’t lend you anymore. That will limit how many properties you can
flip at once.
Flipping
Finance Option #2
Another way to finance your flips is
to partner with other investors so that each of you put in a portion of
the total cost. For example, you might acquire a $100,000 property by finding 3
other investors and each of you put in $25,000.
Of course you’ll also need to figure
out what percentage each person will invest in the renovations, and what
percentage each partner earns at the end. In the example above, the simplest
option would be for each partner to invest 25% and then get 25% back but some
investors might prefer to be just “silent partners” while other investors might
want to roll up their sleeves and do the renovation work!

Finance Option #3
In some situations, you may be able
to invest in real estate with your IRA or 401(k). This is a very smart
strategy (although you should be aware that there are some restrictions and
guidelines — so make sure you talk to an expert who can help you).
There are some significant tax
advantages to using this financing option, so it’s one that you may want to
consider if you have money available in your IRA.
Flipping
Finance Option #4
Seller financing is a very powerful way to finance your investments. Using
this method, you by pass the bank and the seller actually becomes your bank!
Instead of getting a loan from a mortgage company, you simply get the house and
pay the seller a regular “mortgage” payment each month until you’ve paid the
entire amount off. Some sellers like this because they want to sell fast and
like the cash flow.
