Hello,
I have come up with several questions on structuring lease options and would greatly appreciate any advice. Here goes...
-many investors allow their tenant buyers to exercise their option at anytime in the term. But if I have a fixed mortgage then I will incur a mortgage payout penalty. Do you pass this cost onto the buyer via the contract, or take an open mortgage at a less favorable rate?
-how do you determine rent and monthly lease option payments? Market rent on a single family home is typically negative cashflow.
-do you collect a security deposit with your lease in addition to the option deposit?
Thanks,
Debbie
