My friend has a big problem
He has been guided into doing a little "creative financing" by some not so clean characters.
Basic problem is that he was planning another deal to tie in with the house he has now. He is very young and turns out not too clever.
A bank has a mortgage over his investment prop in a major capital city. The mortage is 80% based and no Mortgage insurance. His problem is that the house is worth 100K less than the bank were led to believe. Big problem....
Not just that but teh original contract price was huge....too huge, and it will draw some attention for sure if it is looked at.
His deal would have worked well if another deal came in but it fell apart because someone died...heart attack i think....does that suprise anyone!
Very dangerous scenario. Playing with fire.....
He is really freaked out to say the least. Why because it is ilegitimate and he will struggle to keep the balls in teh air. If he manages to pull that off he will be stressed for the next 5-6 years and at the end of that will have nothing to show for it.
He has other options: Basically the person whoses name appears on the mortgage docs can dissapear. But with a gap of 100K the fraud squad will probably be close behind.
THey can easily check names etc.
So basically he has no money, and only half a job I think, and hes starting to worry me. Worst part for him is that he has got nothing out of it...just a very tight noose around his neck.
So I'm not a seasoned pro so not able to advise really.. Can anyone suggest anything for him
Hes a good guy who has just made a big mistake without even realising it. Sucked in is the phrase.
Cheers JBR
