Is an AITD Right for You?

Let's start with the Seller.

The first reason to use an AlTD, is you make more money. An AITD is a full sale. The way I do them, the Buyer pays all Buyer's and Sellers closing costs and the Buyer is then responsible for the taxes and insurance. The seller is simply the bank. (Hypothetically speaking.) In my opinion an AlTD is probably one of the best long or short term investments you can make. You can have no equity, or a lot of equity. You can wrap any amount of money, for any amount of time. $100,000 or $1.00. One day or 30 years.

An example would be: your home is worth $300,000 and you owe $200,000 with a 5% interest rate. If you sell on an AITD with a 6% interest rate, due in 5yrs, your gross is about $143,500.00. If you sell the same property for $300,000, using traditional real estate sales, your gross is about $73,287. To buy and sell that same home using traditional real estate sales, would cost about $56,802.00. Using the same scenario, except owing $300,000 with no equity, you would sell with an AlTD for only $1.00 more than the original loan. So the AITD is now for $300,001. You just saved $56,802.00, less the Buyers $10,000 he came in with selling a single family residential, rental, to the tenant, can be one of the best investments. You usually go from a 4% or 5% monthly return as a landlord to 12% to 20% return as the bank. Plug in your own figures, using the Rent vs. AITD work sheet below. As the Seller, it costs you no money the way I do an AlTD. The Buyer pays all of the costs. Review the Traditional Sales vs. an AlTD page. 

Let's look at the Buyer.

The Buyer brings in $10,000. The purchase price can be $50,000 or $10,000,000.00. (ten million) It doesn't matter, I've done both. The $10,000 covers all the Buyers and Sellers closing costs. This includes escrow, title insurance, recording, etc., all Seller's and Buyer's closing costs. How does this benefit the Buyer? Let's take a simple $300,000 home. It cost about $56,802 to buy and sell that home. It cost you, the Buyer about $30,089 to buy that home. (See Traditional Sales vs. AITD.) You also need to qualify for the loan, have at least a 30 to 45 day escrow, you must have been on your job for two years, have a certain amount of reserves in the bank, pay PM, etc. With the AITD you need $10,000. You need only qualify to the Seller and the escrow takes 3 to 5 days. You can buy as many AITD's as you want, but remember you must qualify to the Seller. A good purchase is usually from your landlord if you are renting. Often the landlord makes more money by selling a single family residential rental, to a renter, rather than to continue renting it. If that happens remember you will be responsible for taxes and insurance, as you are now the owner.

Note for both Buyer and Seller:

Remember I do these AITD's as a ministry to help both Buyers and Sellers. I am a Real Estate Broker and an Arranger of credit. I am able to do the AlTD's for the $10,000 simply because I've removed many of the middle men. However I have taken on a huge amount of responsibility and liability. My commission is what's left over out of the $10,000. Many times the $10,000 does not cover everything and I have to come out of pocket to make the deal work. Use the forms below to work out your different scenarios if you have trouble or need help call me at (805) 733-0721 or e-mail me at refugiobob1@yahoo.com. Please be patient. There is only one of me. I know of no other broker that does this for a living. Thanks.
