"Here Are The Details About Our Program"

Hello,

My name is Bob Docman. I'm in bit of a pinch and I need your help. I've got some buyers who need a house... actually, I've got 172 buyers who need a house.

Here's the story... I'm a real estate investor and I advertise to find people who want to lease option my houses. Well... my marketing worked amazingly well and I found a lot more buyers than I had houses to sell. So... I wanted to find a way to help these folks find a home and to make a little money on all the work I've done to find them and qualify them... so I set up this quick web page and started calling landlords like you in the area.

My buyers want to live in the area, but don't qualify for a mortgage right now. That means they would be buying from you "Rent To Own."

They can afford the monthly payment and will qualify within 1 or 2 years. We had every one of them talk to a mortgage broker before we put them on the list... I wanted to know exactly how long it would take them before they did qualify and could take out a new loan and pay off the house.

These buyers will also give you full market value for your house and full market rent during the lease period… sometimes a little bit more than that.

In addition to that, they tend to take care of the property better than a normal tenant because they see it as their property. And you will have a written agreement with them that makes them responsible for repairs to the house. So if the furnace goes out, they have to fix it or if the toilet stops up, they don't call you in the middle of the night. It saves a lot of landlord headaches.

And if the worst happens and they default, they lose their option and you can evict them. The beauty is that the percentage of evictions on this type of sale is way below normal tenant eviction rates... so it's a lot safer.

By the way, none of this costs you a dime. I'm paid by the buyer.

As far as price goes...It doesn't really matter to me how much you want for it, but if we put it much over market value, I won't be able to find a buyer.

But there is no reason we shouldn't be able to get you full market value or maybe a little more because the way we are selling it. My buyers are pretty motivated.

So... if you are interested, please let me know. We can talk in person and I'll answer any of your questions. As soon as you give me the okay, I'll send out an email to my list about your house. I have sold houses in one day with this list, so don't be surprised if things happen pretty fast after you give me the okay.

Let me know what you think. Fill out the form here.

Whatever you decide, I wish you the very best of all good things.


Best Wishes,
Bob Docman

Frequently Asked Questions

What sort of down payments do most people have?

We try to get between $2k and $3k as a lease option fee - more if we can. This is where we make our money so our goal is to get a much as possible. Also, the more we get as a down payment, the more stable the tenant is for you, so it benefits us both.


What is the number of people who walk away from the house when the lease is over (either because they are unable to get regular financing or decide the no longer want the home.)

Less than 30% of lease option buyers will exercise the option. So it is likely that they will not buy it at the end. But there are some real benefits -

  1. It doesn't cost you a dime to fill the property. That is what we do and we are paid by the buyer.
  2. You no longer have to lose your mortgage or property tax payment every month since you will offset it with the monthly income.
  3. You don't have to do maintenance on the property - the new buyer/tenant is responsible for repairs.
  4. You don't pay for utilities.
  5. They cut their own grass and shovel their own snow.
  6. They don't call you like regular tenants.
  7. You get a 3 years lease rather than 1 year for most renters.
  8. You get a more stable tenant than a regular renter because the folks that move in see themselves as owners rather than renters. Remember the old adage, "You don't wash a rental car." Same goes for buyers vs. tenants of houses.

If the person walks away from the lease what becomes of their down payment?

It is non-refundable to the buyer. When they end their lease, we would be happy to help you fill the property again - we have a very active and growing list of buyers.


Who is responsible for upkeep and maintenance on the home?

This is all the responsibility of the buyers.


Since the home has a mortgage are there any problems with leasing that would cause the "Due on sale" clause of the mortgage to be invoked by the lender?

No, a lender would see this as a lease, not a transfer of ownership.


Because it's a lease, does the person leasing the home get the homestead exemption or would it be treated like a rental property, and if so, at what point would the taxes would go up without that exemption.

It would be treated like a rental property so eventually the exemptions would be removed and the taxes would go up.

But - you also get the benefits of owning rental property. I know that some people think owning rental property is nuts, but I own a lot of rental property and I know how easy it is to handle if you set it up right.

You will get several financial benefits from keeping your property and selling it as a lease option:

  1. Depreciation on the property. This is a good thing. You can deduct 3.64% of the tax basis (27.5 years depreciation) of the improvement of the property against either active or passive income (depending on how you are set up). On a $100k property, this would equal about $1k in real cash savings on your taxes each year. (talk to your CPA for details about how this works).
  2. Appreciation of the property. Over time, the value of the property goes up. I know it's been a rough patch in the market these last few years, but the likelihood is that the values will eventually go back up. This will make it possible for you to sell the property in the future and make a profit rather than have the potential (in many cases) of actually having to come to closing with cash to sell it.
  3. Buy down of the mortgage over time. Over time, the note will pay itself off. You may have years before this happens, but every month a little bit of your payment goes toward the principle and you will build equity.
  4. Rents go up over time as a hedge against inflation. The thing I love best about my investment property is that the rents go up. I know of no other investment that has an automatic hedge against inflation like this. Most houses have 30 year fixed payments, but as rents go up, if you apply the extra income to the mortgage each month, you will likely pay it off in 10-15 years because of the increased cash flow.

There are also some negatives to consider:

  1. Risk of vacancy. Over time, you will have vacancies. Each month the property is vacant, you lose money. The beauty of working with us is that we have buyers and can fill it very quickly. The risk of selling it on the open market is often much higher than selling it through us with a Lease Option. Keeping it on the open market, you must pay the mortgage, utilities, taxes, insurance, grass cutting, maintenance and wear and tear that comes from keeping a property vacant (did you know that the plumbing will often deteriorate in a vacant house because of lack of use?).
  2. Risk of damage from tenants. There is always going to be wear and tear on a house when someone lives in it. When they move out, you will need to have it cleaned up before you sell it again. It's also possible that someone will deliberately 'trash' your house. This is very rare and is covered by insurance.
  3. Management headaches. I hate managing property and make a point NEVER to talk to any of my tenants. I have a competent property manager do this for me. The biggest reason people say they hate real estate investing is because they manage their own property. This, in my opinion just doesn't make sense. Let someone else do it for you - they typically charge about 10% of the rent. I can recommend someone good if you like.
  4. Picking a bad buyer/tenant. This is another mistake most newbie investors make - they screw up on tenant selection. That is why we put them through a qualification process that vastly improves the tenant/buyer's success rate.

The downside is that taking on tenant buyers, in my opinion, is much smaller than the upside - especially if the alternative is a vacant house. We know that in a good market, 33% of all properties listed for sale on the MLS do NOT sell. Right now, that percentage is much higher. We also know they will not sell for more than market value and that the cost to sell with a Realtor will run you about 10% after commissions, closing costs, repairs, and negotiation. For many people who are close to market value on their mortgage, this cost just isn't possible.


How do buyers get financing when it's time to exercise their option?

They go to any conventional lender and apply for a loan. The reason they are buying "Rent To Buy" right now is because they do not qualify for a conventional loan. Since 2007, conventional loans have become much harder to qualify for - ask any mortgage broker. That is why so many properties that are for sale by real estate brokers don't sell. Buyers just can't get loans without almost perfect credit. Appraisals have also been a problem recently, so even if the Buyer qualifies, if the appraisal doesn't come in, they won't be able to finance it.

Our goal is to help good, responsible people get into a home. People who will take care of it and treat it like their own. We've had good luck finding just that over the years.

If the Buyer exercises the option, that's great and you make your money. If they don't, the advantages of having someone pay your mortgage and buy a house for you are enormous.


I believe that selling the property as a lease option is the solution that is the least painful. In fact, it may end up being the best financial decision you ever make.

I hope these answers give you a better idea of how this all works and helps you decide if it is for you or not.
