Only Making One Offer? Here's What To Do Instead

Deal Structuring – A Common Error (and How to Fix It)
Here’s the mistake:
Most investors default to one offer. Cash. Maybe a lowball. Maybe even decent.
But if you stop there? You’re leaving money on the table.
The fix? Offer multiple deal structures.
Creative financing isn’t just for desperate sellers — it’s a tool to:
Solve more seller problems
Win more deals (even at higher prices)
Keep more of your capital in play
Example:
Instead of offering $120,000 cash on a $220,000 house…
Try this 3-option approach:
💵 $120,000 Cash – Fast close
💳 $200,000 Seller Financing – $20k down, 5% interest
🧠 $210,000 Lease Option – Low upfront, high exit spread
Let the seller choose what works best. You win either way.
