Making Your Own Sub2 Luck...

My partner Jim called me up a day ago and said we need to go 'drive for dollars' tomorrow (or something like that). I said, "Great, let's go!"

So we arranged to meet at our regular car pooling place at the bourgeoisie "Le McDonald's" home of "Le Big Mac de Deliciose". After getting on the road, Jim pulled out his folder packed with prospective deals, and gave me directions on where to head.

We drove by some familiar houses that we'd negotiated on, and a few others that had just become obviously vacant and abandoned.

After driving around the farm writing down new addresses for about two hours or so, we came across a house that once had quite lush landscaping. I pulled in the driveway, got out, and walked up to the garage door and found it unlocked and opened it. Thankfully, someone had already bashed in the entry door from the garage to give us access! Jim and I went in and explored. It was beautiful and well laid out. Later, I discovered that the owner lived around the corner.

As we continued driving, we saw a woman out in her front yard appearing to rake the dirt of her rental house. I got out and jokingly asked if she was preparing the house for rent? She laughed, and said, "No, I live here." I laughed, too, and added for giggles if she was interested in selling. Before she could answer, I said, "Come on! Tell me you want to sell this place." She laughed again at my forwardness (I think), and said, "OK, it's for sale, if you say so."

With the conversation set firmly on friendly ground, I was able to discover that she owned a condo nearby that was in foreclosure, but the bank hadn't filed an NOD yet. She had just stopped making payments when the renter bailed. Her interest payment was very low, but the rent didn't quite cover everything.

My mind whirled. If I sub2'd this condo and resold it on a Land Contract for the loan balance, but at market interest rate, I could not only get a $10,000 down payment; make a couple hundred dollars a month on the payment spread, but save this lady's credit, and become a hero. At this point Jim interrupted me and saved me from offering this woman any money! Just kidding. I didn't offer her a dime.

Bottom line: We're taking title, reselling the condo with $10k down; making $200 a month in cash and giving the seller nothing, but a credit boost. Yay. All that just by asking a "landlord" if she wants to the sell the 'hell hole' that she's raking the dirt on.

Back to the other house. We're talking to the seller, offering them a few hundred bucks for the right to control the property, lease it out, and negotiate a loan modification (if that fails, we've collected rent for about 18 months at $1,300 a month) without paying property taxes, but maintaining the seller's fire insurance.

Both these prospects came just from driving around YESTERDAY! Does this happen every time? No. But it happens often enough to keep us jazzed up about doing small sub2 deals.

BTW, how much money does this mean we made with our two hours of driving around? Well, $1,300 x 18 months is $23,400. Then we've got the condo with $10k up front, and $200 for another 18 months. That's another $13,600. So we will have made $34,000 in 18 months for maybe 2 hours worth of prospecting.

Now you might ask, what's it gonna cost to fix the condo and clean up the house? We'll have $3,500 invested total. So, $30,500 isn't too bad. That's still about $15,000 an hour less prep work. Okay, Jim and I are splitting the profit so it's actually $7,500 an hour. That's better than my surgeon makes an hour.
