Zero down doesn't really mean no down payment. Most sellers need something as a down payment if they are providing financing. Most banks won't do 100% financing on real estate that is purchased as an investment. Zero down just means that the down payment won't come from your money. So where will you get it? Can you really profit from real estate without having money to start?The answer is clearly yes. At our local investor's meeting the other night, one investor told me that he recently found a fixer upper, but couldn't arrange financing. What did he do? He assigned the contract to another investor for $6,000. In other words, all he ever had into the deal was a $500 "good faith" deposit, and his time, and he made a $6,000 profit. This is called "flipping."Not only did he not need a down payment, but he didn't even have to buy the property to make money. There was enough potential profit in fixing up and selling the house, that other investors were happy to pay to take his place. The key here was that he knew how to find a good deal, and his offer included the right to assign the contract to another investor if he wanted to.Now, if he had put the $500 deposit on a credit card, it...more
