Episode #352

Seller financing is a great way to fund real estate deals on YOUR terms. But why would a seller agree? In this episode, we’re taking a deep dive into the topic—showing you how to pitch seller financing like a pro and get your offer accepted!

Welcome back to another Rookie Reply! Beyond seller financing, Ashley and Tony discuss the ins and outs of scaling a real estate business and some of the most common mistakes that rookie investors make along the way. You’ll also learn why you should keep a mortgage in one person’s name, how to minimize your debttoincome ratio so you can scale faster, and how to identify the perfect loan products for your portfolio. Finally, good contractors are hard to find, but our hosts deliver some expert advice on how to negotiate with them and protect yourself!
