| Article Title :: Real Estate Financing - Ten Ways |
| |
| Do you remember when real estate financing meant you saved up enough to put 20% down on a house, and then you got a mortgage loan for the other 80%? Well, you can still do that, but there are many more options now. Here are ten of them.1. Gifting programs.

FHA and other lenders have so far approved of or allowed this.2. No-doc loans. These and "low-doc" loans, meaning no or low documentation requirements, are back, and you can find them through online banks. These are for those of you with bad cr (read full article) |

Some good reasons, but how do you do it safely?1. Get a large downpayment. The most obvious way to be safe, and not always possible.2. Get other security.

Check their credit. Have them pay for and bring you a credit report. Bad credit may be okay, but type of bad credit is important. Unpaid hospital bil (read full article) |
