In Illinois Now

September 12th, 2023 at 04:20 pm

I am in Illinois now.   Last night, I spent the night at my son's house.

I am not buying that little blue craftsman; it has foundation issues.

I have been seeing houses but haven't found one yet which will work.

I don't think I am going to find a house which I can currently pay cash for which will suit my needs. While a traditional mortgage is currently not an option, a hard money loan is.

You may recall that SB has previously lent money through an investor group for a hard money loan. The same group is willing to lend to me. I can borrow at 7%, with a 2% funding fee, for 2 years. At the end of 2 years, if I wish, I can roll it over for 2 more years with another 2% funding fee. This would allow me to buy a more expensive home right now, without a job.

I am going to explore this idea a bit more and see some more homes.

    Sorry the house didn't work out for you and good luck with the continued hunt.

    Hi Living Almost Large, This group is in California. It is a small group of private investors, some of whom are personal acquaintances of SB, which is how we know about them.

    Thank you, Rob. Smile
