Increase Profits with Lease Options

For a beginner or an experienced investor, there is a tool that should be included in the "toolbox" of investment strategies the LEASE WITH OPTION TO BUY.
It doesn't matter whether the investment is "buy and hold" or "find and sell", it must arranged with exit strategies from properties to control cash flow and liquidity.
There are many benefits with a Lease with Option to buy program:
Significantly higher income and longer term tenants.
Committed Tenants that take pride in ownership, by making improvements to the property.
Creating Sales that could not of happened otherwise, at much higher market prices.
Intriguing?

A lease option allows the Investor to provide the tenants an opportunity to own that is otherwise unavailable, and generally expect five times the number of responses on a lease with Option to buy than a regular "For Rent" ad.
Tenants who are taking pride in ownership and are often making improvements to the property! People looking to buy with a lease option are generally willing to pay a slightly higher sales price, often 15% higher, due to seller softer sales terms.
Receive a monthly payment towards the option (fee being paid to grant the option) in addition to the monthly rent, thereby increasing monthly cash flow.

Mr. Lease Option shows you how:
Professional real estate investor and renowned speaker, Mark Maupin, is an expert on the implementation of lease options and other investment tools. They have been a part of his investment strategies for the purchase and sale of over 3,500 homes.
Through his seminars and learning products, Mark is now making his broad-base of knowledge available.

Here's just a sample of what other investors who have attended Mark's seminars have said about their experience:

“Mark's program is very informative, lot of great exit strategies, purchase strategies ... one of the most effective and informative seminars I’ve ever been to. We are in the process of tying up a few properties right now using strategies from that program. “ - Darian Moore

“This was my second time through. Every time I attend these events I’m learning more and more detailed information, my confidence sky rockets ... it just motivates you more to get involved actually doing deals ... great learning experiences. Now I’m able to take the information I have and get involved in any situation that’s out there”. - Gary Lanski

“Currently I’m concentrating on the foreclosure business and the exit strategy on the foreclosure business. So, the lease option is going to help tremendously as an exit strategy.” - Peter Surur

“I’d already done two lease options, but after attending Mark’s seminar I realized that I’d made some mistakes. I hadn’t signed the purchase agreement at the right time, so my tenant is not on the hook as Mark was explaining. I went back and talked to my tenant and did what Mark had showed me how to do. Now they have paid me $5,000 down ... I have another $8,000 note ... and they are paying me $300 per month (on the note) until they buy the house. So I’m making extra cash flow and they are going to buy my house within one-half year.”
- Janak Mehta

35,000 people have lost homes so far this year

Advertisement Avoiding trouble
Anyone connected with real estate or mortgage business stresses one fact: Your bank does not want to get your house back. If you can't make payments, contact your lender as soon as possible.

Most lawyers don't charge for first-time consults, so try to at least consult with a bankruptcy attorney and see what your options are before taking out a second mortgage.

If you're looking into buying a home or getting a mortgage, experts advise that mortgage payments should be no more than 25 percent to 33 percent of your take-home pay. If you suffer a short-term setback (expensive car repairs, a medical emergency), your lender may be able to provide breathing room by agreeing to let you pay off a missed payment in two installments over the next two months. For more advice, get an attorney or help from a credit/housing counseling agency like GreenPath Debt Solutions, (800) 550-1961; Homeownership Preservation Foundation, (888) 995-HOPE; or Detroit ACORN, (313) 963-1840.

Donating Real Estate!
Tax Benefits of Donating Real Estate To A Church Or Charity!

You Do Not Need To Be Large Property Owner To Donate! Most people think that donating real estate to a charity is for the rich. This simple is not true. I have worked individuals, charities, and small corporations for years with donations process. For many people and companies is about the able to rid themselves of unwanted property. They simple want out. They are tired of property taxes, insurance cost and the liability exposure. The following are the rules that apply for real estate donation:

Individuals:
The following rules apply if the donated property is owned in your own name, with your spouse or other persons:
If you have held the property for more than one year, it is classified as long-term capital gain property. You can deduct the full fair market value of the donated property. Your charitable contribution deduction is limited to thirty percent (30.00%) of your adjusted gross income. Excess contribution value may be carried forward for up to five years. If the property has been depreciated, the fair market value must be reduced by its accumulated depreciation through the date of contribution. Fair market value is most commonly determined by an independent appraisal. If you elect to deduct your cost basis of the donated property you are allowed a deduction of fifty percent (50.00%) of your adjusted gross income. Excesses here again can be carried forward up to five years. Which method you elect is dependent on the cost basis in the property donated, your tax bracket, the age and health of the donor and whether you plan to make future contributions.

Corporate Donors The following rules apply if a corporation makes your contribution, these rules apply: If you have a controlling interest in the corporation and the property has been held for more than one year, the corporation can deduct up to ten percent (10.00%) of the net profit of the corporation. Excess contribution amounts can be carried forward up to five years. The fair market value here must be reduced by the amount of accumulate depreciation. If the corporate has elected "Subchapter S" status, then the contribution allowed will be reported on the individual shareholders K1 and may be deducted on the individual return. Partnerships, S-Corporations and Limited Liability Companies The following rules apply if a partnership, S-Corporation or limited liability company is making your contribution: The Corporation may not claim a deduction for the property donated. Rather, the contribution passes to the individual shareholders on a pro-rated based on their percent ownership in the S corporation. The shareholder can claim this deduction on their individual tax return. The same limits and carry forward rules will apply. Partnerships and limited liability company contribution rules are the same as an S corporation with one exception the partners or member can claim a deduction even if they have no basis in the partnership or limited liability company.

Real estate investing by nature is risky. You can win, lose, or break even. We cannot guarantee a profit or loss. We do not provide legal, accounting, or contracting advice.

The Key To Real Estate Investment Success is arranging for exit strategies from rental properties. The emphasis in "Mr. Lease Option's" Seminars is placed on real life Real Estate Investing. Mr. Maupin will conduct a New Investor-Landlord's special course on options in 2006.

It doesn't matter whether an investment is "buy and hold" or” find and sell.” You must arrange for exit strategies from your rental properties to control your cash flow and liquidity. Here's how Mark Maupin, "Mr. Option", who has bought and sold over 3500 homes in the past decade did it. During a certain period of time, Mr. Maupin had over 300 rental properties and was over-buying. Things were out of control with his rental properties.

Rent to Own, Lease Option, Lease with Option to Purchase all mean the same thing in general usage. A lease is simply a rental agreement that is for a set period of time (i.e. twelve months verses a month-to-month rental period. The Lease with Option to buy Program resulted in the following landlord benefits :
1. Significant Higher Income and Long term tenants.
2. Committed Tenants who take pride in ownership, making property improvements
3. Utilizing extremely effective national Credit Restoration and financial experts as to restructure the credit profiles and rework the back end financing for the tenants
4. Creating Sales that could not of happened otherwise, at much higher market prices

Tenants might not necessarily know the meaning of "Lease with Option to Buy", but they do know the term, "Rent to Own"!

1. Investors can generally expect five times the number of responses on a lease with Option to buy than a regular "For Rent" ad.

4. People looking to buy with a lease option are generally willing to pay a slightly higher sales price, often 15% higher, due to seller softer sales terms.

Effective Ways To Get Profit From Every Meeting With A Seller
Guided by Mark Maupin

Mark Maupin explains that you can make a profit from the deals you find, even when the deals aren't a fit for your real estate business.

Here are Effective Ways To Get Profit from a seller to make sure you get paid for your time.

1. Deal Sign Up

This is the most obvious way to profit from every appointment you make.

2. Turn Your "Junk" Into Gold

Take the people you meet who just are not a fit for you and refer them to people in your network who can profit by the referral. This builds value into your referral network. For example: You meet with a seller who really would do better to refinance the house. You simply say, "I can see it's not a fit for me to buy this house. Your best option really is for you to refinance the property. Here's the number of a great mortgage broker I know , and if I remember, I'll ask her to give you a call next week to see if she can help out." Then pass the seller's name and phone number on to your mortgage broker. Over time this will encourage your mortgage broker contact to pass leads to you, such as buyers whose loan fell through. There is a motivated seller now!
Get more knowledge by Mark Maupin

3. Having knowledge on Local Market Conditions

Use the meeting to get information for the resale market and for the rental market.

Find out: What are rental and resale prices like?
How long are properties staying on the market?
What types of properties are most in demand and what types are least in demand?
What is the perceived market conditions according to the sellers?

4. Learn From the Appointment

This is the ultimate way to leverage yourself. What went well with the appointment? What will you do differently next time as a result of what you learned on this appointment? Make sure you take five minutes and debrief yourself in writing!

5. Future Deals

Follow-up,follow-up,and follow-up with all of these sellers.

What Is Rent To Own In Real Estate?
Increase profits through the use of Lease Options

If you own rental property, or are purchasing property for re-sale, there is a tool that you will absolutely want to include in your "toolbox" of investment strategies-LEASE WITH OPTION TO BUY. This article will give you a basic overview of Options and how they can be used to increase your profits and produce quicker cash flow for your investment properties. First, let's clear up some "slang" terms often used with these that create confusion: Rent to Own, Lease Option, Lease with Option to Purchase all mean the same thing in general usage. A lease is simply a rental agreement that is established for a set period of time (e.g. twelve months required rental period); rent is often used to refer to month-to-month situations. What is an OPTION? An option is a grant of the right to purchase property, at set price and terms, from the owner of the property.

The person who receives the option can (but is not required to) purchase the property during a set period of time agreed to by both parties when they enter the option. An option is different from an agreement to sell (Purchase Agreement). Under an option, the seller agrees to sell, but the buyer does not agree to buy; the buyer simply has the option of buying during the option period. A Purchase Agreement provides that the buyer agrees to buy and the seller agrees to sell. NOTE: In an Option, the Seller is the Option or (The one who gives the Option) and the Buyer is known as the Optionee (The one who receives the Option).

What is needed to SET UP a Lease with Option to Buy?
To set up a Lease with Option to Purchase with a tenant, you will need all of the documents you would normally use to set up a simple rental/lease:
• Option Agreement*/Purchase Agreement
• Rental Agreement
• Check-in/check-out list
• Lead Base Paint Disclosure and pamphlet
• Smoke Detector Agreement
• Any other agreements you would normally use). *Be sure that Option Agreement you're using protects you as the Option or, as many option forms available favor the Optionee. Attached to the Option Agreement will be a Purchase Agreement, which will spell out the terms of the sale under which the tenant may purchase.

NOTE: It is important that both parties initial the Purchase Agreement on the top or bottom corner to acknowledge that the terms have been agreed to but it is not yet a binding Purchase Agreement. Also, be sure to use an Option form that is not recordable, on the public records so that the tenant doesn't unnecessarily cloud the title to your property.

BENEFITS of doing Lease Options Let's look as some things that you can expect when you offer your property on a Lease with Option to Buy:
1. If you place an ad for your property offering a lease with Option to Buy, you can generally expect five times the number of responses than a regular "For Rent" ad. There are a lot of people looking for an opportunity to own their own home rather than just continue to rent.
2. The tenants who call will be inherently more responsible and serious about owning their next home.
3. Traditionally, in addition to the monthly rent, you will receive a monthly payment towards the option fee (the fee you are being paid to grant the option) thereby increasing your monthly cash flow.
4. Since you are working with people who often aren't immediately able to purchase a home outright for various reasons (usually credit or time on the job), you are providing them the opportunity to own when they otherwise couldn't, and are therefore generally willing to pay a slightly higher sales price, often as much as15%.

How to STRUCTURE a Lease Option Through our experience, we have found the following to be a good guideline for structuring Lease Options: Charge market rent. Don't give discounts on rent just because the tenants are also paying you a monthly option fee or they are planning on buying the house; the option is separate from the rental. Get as much option fee as you can up front, the more the perspective tenants pay up front, the greater their risk will be if they don't follow through. Credit the option fee towards the sale price if they close. In Michigan, you can only collect equal to 1-1/2times the amount of the rental rent as security deposit up front when renting, plus you may have to give it back if the tenants move. When doing an option, don't charge a security deposit; apply the funds the tenant would have paid to the option fee, which is non refundable. Make your option cancelable by you if the tenants default in any of the terms of the rental/lease. (We have this incorporated into all of our agreements) Work with a mortgage loan officer to qualify your perspective tenants.

Have the loan officer advise you on how long it will take to have the tenant "mortgage ready", then set your lease option term accordingly. When pricing your property, you will be able to get more than market price, but remember the property will have to appraise for the purchase price when they qualify for the mortgage. 15% or higher is a good range, figuring their option fee being deducted and appreciation. An excellent explanation of "why pay more" is the example of car insurance, you get some accidents and tickets, and then you end up paying more. Just the same, your credit scores affect the cost of financing and the availability of sellers who will work with you

Make the tenant responsible for repairs and maintenance to the property; make sure your rental agreement states they are responsible for the cost of such repairs and renovations. (Keep in mind under Michigan law, you are still ultimately responsible to perform repairs when you rent property, but often tenants will perform or arrange needed repairs and even if they don't, you can charge the tenants for the repairs.) No matter what your investment plan or strategy, options can be used to produce better profits and less "management intense" rental situations, as well as one of the best solutions to sell your rental property at top dollar. It can truly work as one of the best "win/win" situations in real estate investment.
