What should be in a good Lease Purchase Agreement !

What should be in a Good Lease Purchase Agreement ?
BY CLAUDE W. DIAMOND J.D.-
http://www.ClaudeDiamond.com

Lease Purchasing is one of the most profitable and practical ways to be in real estate. You don’t need a bank or a pot of gold to get started. There is an absence of Tenant & Toilet problems (if setup correctly)! It’s creative and even fun !
Lease Purchasing can also be a nightmare if you do not have the foresight to have well designed, strategically written contracts.

Recently I was asked by a reader (via our Web site www.claudediamond.com) where he could find good generic Lease Purchase contracts. To me that is like asking a neurological surgeon if he can recommend a do it yourself brain surgery kit and combination salad maker!

I advised the reader that there are generic contracts from several sources. One such source is your local real estate agent or office. They have the multi-purpose fill in the many blank type forms.

The question remains, however, are they any good or even WORTH THE PAPER THEY ARE WRITTEN ON ?

My handy Law Dictionary defines Generic as follows: Something not specific or not referring to a specific thing.

Generic contracts are just that generic. They are designed with the one size fits all concept. In reality, they are not designed to protect you or your interest in the particular Lease Purchase transaction with which you are currently involved.

I have collected many of these so called generic Lease Purchase contracts for years. Not only have I gotten contracts from Realtors and stationary stores; others came from the get rich quick, while staying in bed all day, books and seminars. They all have one thing in common. They’re garbage ! They are poorly written and lack the necessary clarity and/or specific verbiage inorder for the contract to be enforceable.

I have designed and utilize six specific contracts for my own Lease Purchase deals. Which one I use is determined by the hat I am currently wearing at the time. Am I the Landlord/Seller, the Tenant/Buyer or the Assignor/Assignee? Will I be Subletting, Assigning, Sandwiching, Pure Optioning or just quick flipping ?

TIP: I always carry a couple copies of my Lease Purchase Contracts in my car’s trunk right next to my earthquake emergency kit* compartment. An investor is always prepared !

Here are a few suggestions for items that should be contained in any Lease Purchase Agreement. Some of these may seem like obvious inclusions. Having been involved in Lease Purchasing for many years now, I can tell you that the obvious is not always so!

1. Identify the principle parties: Who is the Tenant/Buyer and who is the Landlord/Seller?
It might even be a good idea to do business as a corporation.

2. Location of the property: Use the parcel identification number (PIN) and the street address.
There should be no mistake about which property you are dealing with.

3. Date and Signature: Make sure all the owners sign the contract. This includes spouses, partners or anyone who has ownership or an equitable interest in the property.
Big problems can occur with a Lease Purchase if you don’t have all the owners sign. Better yet, check the title, loans, etc.

4. Term: Be specific on the length of the contract.
Strategy Tip: If you are negotiating with the owner make the contract for as long as possible. If you are the owner or are subletting the property, make the contract no longer than one year.

5. Be Specific: All the terms, including Price, Rent Credit, Closing Costs, Option Consideration, Financing and Escrow should be included. No term should be ambiguous. Be specific !

6. Right of Assignment:Be sure that you have the right to sublet-transfer and convey the property to a third and in some cases a 4th Party.

Generic Contracts, YUCH !!! I would recommend that you never use a generic contract! If, however, you choose to do so, have it reviewed by a competent attorney who is either a real estate investor or who specializes in real estate law. (Sorry, it’s the Perry Mason in me!) Better yet have him design an agreement that meets with your needs, expectations and of course, PROTECTS YOU.

P.S. Without sounding too legalistic make sure your agreement also includes-Indemnification-disclaimer-notification and Force Majeure clauses too. There are several other clauses that can be also included to maximize your profits and decrease your expenses. Give me a call and we can discuss

The Best Home Business in the World (or Welcome to the World’s Second Oldest Profession)

Mon, 14 Jun 2010 12:27:57 -0600

The Best Home Business in the World (or Welcome to the World’s Second Oldest Profession)
By: Claude W. Diamond J.D.

I just read read through a very hefty entrepreneurial type magazine web page, checking out the so called “business opportunities”. Lately, it seems that everyone wants to quit their job and become part of the free enterprise system. They want to be their own person and have the satisfaction of running a business that will guarantee them the freedom to pursue their dreams and to create a high income*.
There seem to be more ways people can enter the world of entrepreneurship (and lose money) than one could ever dream of. The glossy enticing pages offered by many companies are just waiting to show you all the different ways in which you can become part of the American Dream.
It’s not just chicken and flipping burgers anymore folks. Why just for going $100,000.00 (and more) into debt, you too, can become part of a franchise that cleans houses (yuck), you can bake cookies in a hot oven all day in the local mall or you can sell Jalapeno flavored gourmet jelly beans to weary travelers at airports. While these opportunities may tantalize the heart strings of some, I am still a fervent believer in the world’s second oldest profession, Real Estate.
Note: As a kid, I worked for many years after school and on Saturdays in a Grocery Store/Deli in New York City. Believe me when I tell you that the only things you get from a retail business are very long hours and remarkably little pay! (Especially when it’s your Mom and Dad who run the business).
None of the opportunity type publications explore the possibilities of the best home based business in the world; a Creative Real Estate Investment Business.
Just think about it for a moment. What if I told you that you could operate a very profitable, stimulating, creative and fun business from your own home. Imagine no more commuting or car pooling every morning! You would need a telephone and a yellow felt tip marker (fax & computer are helpful, however, they initially are optional) . Employees are not a necessity nor is an expensive retail location required. There are no high priced franchise fees or royalties to pay to some strange company located in an ivory tower in New York or Chicago. Best of all you can do deals in real estate without having been born with a silver spoon in your mouth.
If you have the need to feel like Albert Schweitzer you can rest assured that you are helping your fellow Americans get rid of their problem properties or possibly you are aiding another to get into a dwelling they might own someday with a creative Lease Purchase. You would be in control of your own business and would have a hand in determining your income goals. Sounds great doesn’t it ?? Uh Oh ! There is a catch, however. The following are required to make the above occur:
A. Specialized Knowledge: It takes very specialized knowledge to make money in this business. Read, study, join an investment club or just find yourself a Mentor. Someone who has made it and is willing to share his knowledge with you.
B. Implementation: The Implementation of that knowledge. (The world is full of people with lots of degrees and who have no money!) It takes guts to take that first step and make something happen. If you have gone to the trouble, time and expense to learn something, take a chance at greatness and make it work. If you don’t Succeed the first time, learn from your mistakes and try again.
*Reality Check: I’m told that statistically very few actually make it. I have an acquaintance who left his safe & secure 40 hour/week job and opened a mail box type franchise outlet. He, his wife and daughter all consistently work 70 hour weeks, have less free time and he makes the same amount of money that he used to working 40 hours/week!
C. Hard Work: Sorry folks, I had to use those four letter words! It takes HARD WORK, but it’s the only job you will ever love.
D. Desire: As my Mentor used to say “It ain’t going to happen unless you want to make it happen.” You must have the desire to want to make it in this business. You must have the ability to constantly motivate yourself, to keep making offers on properties and to constantly educate yourself. Only you can make yourself successful!
“Hey, if it was easy , everyone would be doing it!”
In the final analysis, when you add it all together; working at home, low investment, high rewards, job satisfaction, working part time or full time and making the kind of income you feel you deserve, a private Real Estate Investment Enterprise is truly the Greatest Home Business in the World.

The Ten Commandments of Lease Purchasing!

Fri, 11 Jun 2010 15:43:08 -0600

By: Claude “Holy Moses” Diamond
The one thing I can’t stand about my Guru competition is their lack of humor. If you don’t believe me then ask fictitious character Johnny t. g Reed . If we have half the financial success and dream life that we are talking about, then a little self deprecating humor should be easy to swallow. (May I have an Amen, please?)
It is in that spirit that I had the above picture made. I figured it was time that we Lease Purchase Real Estate Investors had our own set of simple and common sense commandments. What follows is a set of rules for successful, innovative real estate investors to avoid costly mistakes, to increase profits and to give me a great title for another irreverent issue (11 years) of The Lease Purchase Times©. So here goes:
1. Thou shalt go into business to Make Money, have fun and feel great about thyself, otherwise just keep the job.
2. Tenants, Terlits, Evictions and Repairs are abominations and Thou shalt avoid them like the plague.
3. Thou shalt not kill your profits by overspending on unproductive marketing and stuff that collects dust.
4. Thou shalt no longer covet other investors’ crummy homes in yucky neighborhoods.
5. Thou shalt not steal a deal when the seller is willing to reasonably negotiate.
6. Thou shalt use Lease Purchasing to control, rather than own and have liability.
7. Thou shalt not use the name of the bank in vain when thou can become the bank.
8. Thou shalt learn about sales, marketing and negotiation.
9. Thou shalt have fun and feel great, while going to your bank.
10. Thou shalt take thine Profits and rest on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays & Mondays.
11. Thou will honor thy Mentor and thy Mentor shall honor you.
Moses Note: (Ok Ok, I know it’s supposed to only be 10, but one fell off the tablet on the way down the mountain!)

The Lease Purchase Solution

Wed, 2 Jun 2010 15:53:02 -0600

The Lease Purchase Solution

THE BEST KEPT SECRET IN CREATIVE REAL ESTATE DON’T OWN......... control by RENT !!!!!
The Lease Purchase Solution !

Such blasphemy! What kind of successful investor would advise anyone to rent instead of becoming an owner?
The answer: a smart one!
What if I showed you a way to profit in real estate without large cash deposits; not having to apply for bank loans, no overhead, no maintenance, no taxes, insurance or home owner fees to pay. You would probably say that that type of investment does not exist or that such an idea is the product of the author’s wild imagination.
Well, it’s time to learn about the best kept secret in real estate: it’s called Lease Purchasing, known also as ‘renting to own’ or ‘leasing with an option’. Anyone can control real estate that generates immediate profit and/or positive cash flow without having to become a real estate expert and with- out looking at hundreds of houses. If you know how to rent, then you can put together all kinds of profitable and cash generating transactions with just a telephone. Lease Purchasing allows you to create small and large deals without depending on the bank.
Why Lease Purchase?
Controlling real estate through Lease Purchasing, whether it’s for your own home or as an investment property, is by far the superior method of finance. Lease Purchasing helps to remove the traditional adversarial relationships that exist between buyer and seller and produces greater profits.
In most real estate transactions there is a natural tendency between the buyer and seller to try and beat each other up. One wants a lower price and the other wants a higher one. Not to mention all of the other items that have to be negotiated. Next come all of the difficulties associated with deposits, qualification, appraisals, title companies, lenders, escrows, lawyers, etc., etc. Lease Purchasing eliminates these problems and lets the buyer and seller have a win-win experience and get the deal done.
A Lease Purchase is a process where a rental agreement is combined with a purchase or more specifically, an option contract. Price, length of contract, escrow instructions, rent credit and other pertinent terms are all negotiated in advance. The tenant/buyer has a percentage of his rent credited to the down payment or off the price. In many cases, more money is being applied monthly, than an actual mortgage payment would be to the principle.
All the parties concerned can benefit by doing a Lease Purchase transaction. Let’s examine the advantages for the buyer, seller and investor.

From the Buyer’s Viewpoint:
Generally, this is a renter who can’t purchase a home through conventional means. This buyer does not have a large enough down payment for a bank loan, minor credit problems, a new job, high loan to debt ratio or other reasons that make a traditional purchase of a home impractical (impossible) at this time. The buyer is aware of the advantages of home ownership (tax shelter, appreciation, security, etc.) and is eager for a chance to get involved in a home of his own and get out of the rental rat race. Our buyer can lock in the future purchase price even though ownership may not transfer for a year or more. A percentage of the rent can be credited toward the downpayment or off the price. During the terms of the contract, the tenant/buyer has time to check out the house, neighborhood and to obtain the best financing.

From the Seller’s Perspective:
If you are a seller the best way to get top dollar would be to Lease Purchase your home. Since you are being flexible on your terms you are entitled to get your full asking price and a higher than average or premium rent for your property. When you find a prospective buyer/tenant you normally receive option consideration. This is a nonrefundable amount, that in many cases, can be several months rent. If and when the buyer wishes to utilize her option, then you will hopefully receive your capital profits when escrow closes. If the buyer, however, allows the option to expire you also win since you can begin the whole process all over again and either renegotiate the contract or find a new tenant. In either case, you receive more non-refundable option consideration for the same property. If the property sells, then you use some of your profits to reinvest in another house or take back a seasoned note. The potential for profit for the seller is fantastic since a well negotiated deal will always reap profits at every stage of the Lease Purchase.

From the Investor’s Viewpoint:
The Lease Purchase has everything an investor needs to make prudent, profitable investments in real estate. Utilizing very small down payments (1-2%), an investor can control properties that normally require 10-30% without utilizing a lender nor going through the loan application circus.

A good deal can generate profits three different ways:
1. Cash upfront with option consideration 2. Cash monthly (rent) 3. Cash at the close (or a first class note)
Other strategies involve the assigning or flipping of the optioned property to a third party or just being a consultant for the buyer and seller and retaining a portion of the option consideration.
Realtor/Broker Advantages
How about a way to make an upfront fee from a buyer who can’t qualify? Lease Purchasing enables you to consult with a buyer and still profit up front and at the close. Everyone has had potential buyers who, while making a good income, might have some trouble qualifying due to credit problems, downpayment, new employment, etc. By utilizing Lease Purchase strategies you can help your buyer get into a home quickly and be a hero to your seller.
1. High Cash Flow 2. No immediate need for bank qualifying 3. Retain full commission at close
4. Generate high volume of deals
5. New revenue source
6. More listings

In summary, controlling properties by renting with an option (Lease Purchasing) is the absolutely best way to be involved in controlling homes and obtaining great cash flow, high profits and minimum risk. Lease Purchasing can be the best way to create quick cash flow for the first time homeowner, the seasoned investor or the imaginative entrepreneur.

An American Vampire Lease Purchase Investor

Tue, 1 Jun 2010 14:03:53 -0600

An American Vampire Lease Purchase Investor
By: Claude (Igor) W. Diamond J.D.

Good Evening my desperate homeowner friends !!
Please allow me to introduce myself. I’m with the American Vampire Investor Institute. I was sent here to see if we could do some rewarding business. (Rewarding for me that is). I understand that your home is for sale and your family is in serious financial trouble. Your house is in imminent foreclosure, your credit is ruined and you were laid off from your job 6 months ago with no chance of ever being called back. Your self esteem is shot and you’re flipping burgers and dishing out french fries to teenagers on the graveyard shift just to keep food on the table.

To make matters worse your boss is 18 years old, has an earring in each nostril and has a major facial complexion problem. Even worse, he has an attitude that makes Saddam Hussain look like a Campfire GirlTM.

References, credentials you want. Well, I will have you know that I am a graduate of the prominent Get-Rich-Quick Institute in beautiful IcanitWholesale, Utah. I have ridden on the 200 home bus ride tour and have attended the guerrilla bootcamps. (The teacher was an actual Guerrilla). I have over 2000 books and audio CD’s in my bathroom alone. (Some, I have even studied).
Nowhere’s where I come in with my specialized training!
I can sense your despair and I am here to suck out all the life blood that is left in you and your home and leave you nothing for my trouble. I will offer no realistic or positive solutions that will help you. I will take the remaining equity out of your home for my own avaricious needs. I exist for stealing low and selling high. I am after all an American Vampire Investor.

The above is not so far fetched and was written to illustrate the way most investors are trained to make deals happen. This methodology is sure to fail on a long term basis. I just can’t see anyone doing business in this manner and prospering. For starters, it is just too difficult and it does not promote the likelihood of any kind of deal occurring between the buyer, seller or the investor.

The days of being monolithic or one sided in our thinking are over. We must be versatile in our approach to creating income and wealth in properties. We must be problem solvers if we want to be in this business for the long run. I avoid adversarial Real Estate; I prefer a WiN-WiN type of Attitude !

Here are a few suggestions:

A. Be a Problem Solver Consultant - The Investor with the most solutions or ideas can make the most deals happen in Creative Real Estate. Example: Well Ms.Seller, we could do it this way or perhaps this way, which would you prefer?
B. Empathy - If the seller has problems concerning his or her property (financial, personal, etc.) show some compassion. It’s OK to negotiate the best deal you can, but it’s something else to kick someone when they are down. Be fair !
C. Never Stop Learning - No one has a monopoly on knowledge. Attend seminars where the trainer really practices what he preaches. Find a knowledgeable Mentor or someone who has made it. Learn all the time; never stop! Ask reasonable questions or try making multiple offers that present different choices to the seller and which present profitable opportunities for you.
D. Enthusiasm - Nothing beats a good, positive energetic attitude. Be up front and forthright and carry yourself with the right attitude. Nothing can replace genuine excitement about doing a great or (even a not-so-great) deal.
E. Honesty - It’s been said, “You can’t cheat an honest person.” Trust between the parties is the foundation of this principle.
Finally: Lose, better yet, never acquire the Vampire Attitude. Be Proactive and Structure your offers honestly and with fairness to all parties. Every deal cannot be a winner, but you can sure try. My offers are not always accepted the first time, but I do leave the door open. I send follow up letters thanking the sellers and tell them that they can call me anytime. Infact, sellers often call me after a week or even several months later. Sometimes we do a deal, sometimes we don’t, but they know that the option is always there. American Vampire Investors are so limited and adversarial in their approach that they do one or two deals and usually fade away. The successful investor of the 21st Century is here for the long run. If you have multiple solutions to many real estate situations you will prosper beyond your wildest dreams. Besides.....who wants to work ONLY during the full moons looking for blood banks for sale or rent ?
