    Mortgage Rules Changed: What Creative Investors Must Do Now

    Big news just dropped in the real estate world… and creative investors need to pay attention. This week, Jeff Coffman and Ken Rossics break down two HUGE policy shifts that could reshape the entire housing market: 1. The proposal for a 50-year mortgage 2. Fannie Mae removing its minimum credit-score requirement Both changes sound wild on the surface… but if you look a little deeper, they actually open new doors for creative real estate investors who know how to structure deals the right way. In this episode, we break down what these updates really mean for the market, how they’ll affect buyers and sellers, and why they could create the perfect storm of opportunity for investors using creative strategies like subject-to, seller financing, wraps, and hybrids. 💡 In This Episode You’ll Learn: ✅ How 50-year mortgages impact monthly payments, affordability, and cash flow ✅ Why removing minimum credit scores could increase mortgage failures ✅ How looser credit rules create more motivated sellers ✅ The hidden upside for investors who buy sub2 and wrap mortgages ✅ Why lower payments can boost your long-term profits ✅ How these shifts could spark a wave of buy-downs, defaults, and deal flow ✅ The practical steps creative investors should take right now 🧠 The Creative Investing Angle Lower payments mean more spread for creative investors. Looser credit rules mean more distressed sellers down the line. If you understand the cycle, these changes can put you in front of the wave instead of behind it. 🎧 Catch the show every Friday at 11AM Central — LIVE 🔹 Join our FREE Facebook Group → https://www.facebook.com/groups/sub2empire 🔹 Follow us on Instagram → https://www.instagram.com/sub2empire/ 🔹 Connect on LinkedIn → https://www.linkedin.com/company/sub2empire/ 📌 Keywords 50 year mortgage explained, Fannie Mae credit score changes, real estate investing 2025, creative finance strategies, subject to investing, seller financing 2025, housing market update, real estate news 2025, no credit score mortgage, mortgage failures 2025, creative real estate podcast, Sub2Empire Subscribe to The Creative Real Estate Investing Mastery Podcast - Powered by Sub2Empire on Soundwise

    The Hidden Costs That Kill Real Estate Deals

    The Hidden Costs That Kill Real Estate Deals | Creative Real Estate Investing Mastery Podcast Too many investors lose money not because they bought the wrong property — but because they overlooked the hidden costs that eat up their profit. In this episode of the Creative Real Estate Investing Mastery Podcast, Jeff Coffman and Ken Rossics break down the real expenses that wholesalers, rehabbers, and creative finance investors often miss when analyzing deals. Whether you’re wholesaling, flipping, or holding a rental, success comes down to accurate numbers. A deal that looks like it cash flows $500 a month can turn into a negative deal if you forget about reassessed taxes, higher insurance, or hidden HOA fees. This week’s conversation is all about protecting yourself and your profits. 🔑 What You’ll Learn in This Episode: Why hidden costs are the #1 reason investors lose money on “good” deals. The truth about insurance — why your rate is never the same as the seller’s. How property tax reassessments after purchase can shock your bottom line. Why deferred maintenance and “little repairs” snowball into profit killers. HOA pitfalls: dues, assessments, and restrictions that block rental income. The real cost of utilities, lawn care, and carrying vacant properties. Transaction costs like title, attorney fees, and recording costs that add up fast. Exit costs you must factor in for flips or seller-financed deals. Why turnover (for buy and hold investors) is one of the most expensive aspects of owning investment real estate. Real case studies where hidden costs nearly killed a deal — and how to prevent it. How to build a due diligence checklist that protects your profits every time. 💡 Why This Episode Matters Running numbers is easy. Running them accurately is what separates winning investors from amateurs. If you want to wholesale confidently, flip for profit, or build a cash-flowing rental portfolio, you must learn to account for every hidden cost. This episode arms you with the knowledge and systems you need to avoid expensive surprises, build in realistic reserves, and structure deals that actually perform. 🎙️ About the Podcast The Creative Real Estate Investing Mastery Podcast is hosted by Jeff Coffman and Ken Rossics.

    How to Reframe Seller Objections Into Seller Solutions

    How to Reframe Seller Objections Into Seller Solutions | Creative Real Estate Investing Mastery Podcast In creative real estate, every seller has concerns. The key to closing more deals isn’t avoiding objections — it’s knowing how to turn them into solutions. In this episode of the Creative Real Estate Investing Mastery Podcast, Jeff Coffman and Ken Rossics share real-world seller objections they’ve faced in subject-to and seller financing deals — and exactly how they reframed them into win-win transactions. You’ll learn the most common roadblocks, why they’re actually opportunities, and how to respond with confidence so you can build trust and close more deals. 🔑 What You’ll Learn in This Episode: Why objections are actually a good sign in negotiations.

    Real People, Real Deals: Case Study – Buying Subject-To & Selling with Seller Financing

    Real People, Real Deals: How We Bought a Property Subject-To and Sold It on Seller Financing | Creative Real Estate Investing Mastery Podcast In this week’s episode of the Creative Real Estate Investing Mastery Podcast, Jeff Coffman and Ken Rossics walk you through a real-life case study that highlights the power of creative financing. This deal, centered on 1060 Madison Ln in Florissant, MO, shows exactly how we purchased a property subject-to the existing mortgage and then exited the deal with seller financing on a contract for deed. This is not theory. This is a real deal that demonstrates why creative financing tools are essential for today’s investors. From acquisition to exit, you’ll see how to structure transactions that generate upfront cash, monthly cash flow, and long-term wealth — all while creating win-win solutions for sellers and buyers. 🔑 In This Case Study, You’ll Learn: Why Subject-To Works: How taking over an existing loan allowed us to control the property without using traditional bank financing. Seller Financing Exit Strategy: Why we chose a contract for deed and how it created reliable monthly income without the headaches of being a landlord. The Numbers: Purchase side vs. resale side — terms, down payment, interest spread, and monthly cash flow. Finding the Right Buyer: Marketing channels, qualifying standards, and what makes a buyer a perfect fit for seller-financed homes. Pros and Cons: The benefits of seller financing and the key caveats you must understand before executing deals this way. Payday Breakdown: How this deal paid us three ways — cash now, cash flow, and future cash out. 💡 Why This Episode Matters Too often, new investors only hear about wholesaling or flipping. But the truth is that creative financing unlocks opportunities most people overlook. By combining subject-to acquisitions with seller financing exits, investors can create consistent income streams, defer taxes, and help buyers who otherwise couldn’t qualify for traditional loans. This episode gives you a front-row seat to how we actually do it. It’s a masterclass in creative deal-making — using real numbers, real negotiations, and a real property. 🎙️ About the Podcast The Creative Real Estate Investing Mastery Podcast is hosted by Jeff Coffman and Ken Rossics.
