Go to the bank and get a 1st mortgage for 70% of the value of the purchase and have the owner take back a second behind your bank first. Look at all the cash the owner gets at the close. Hmmmm. And it’s still no down for you.

What are some other ways, besides seller financing that one could utilitize for a "no money down’ option. I am looking at properties that are probably owned outright and there could be some negotiating, but not without a good chunk of $ down payment.
