Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about creative financing and The Legacy Homez
What is creative financing, and how does it work?
Creative financing refers to alternative methods of buying property without traditional bank mortgages. It includes seller financing (where the seller acts as the bank) and subject-to deals (taking over existing mortgages). These methods often offer more flexible terms, lower down payments, and easier qualification processes.
What are the benefits of seller financing?
Seller financing offers numerous advantages: lower down payments (often 5-15%), flexible interest rates, no strict credit requirements, faster closings, and negotiable terms. It’s perfect for buyers who want to avoid traditional bank requirements or need more flexible payment structures.
What does "Subject To" mean?
“Subject To” means buying a property by taking over the seller’s existing mortgage payments. The original loan stays in the seller’s name, but you get the deed and make the payments. This method often requires less money down and lets you benefit from existing low interest rates.
How do I find properties with specific financing options?
