    I know generally rebates to buyers from commission have been accepted as ok. But surely with the current issues in the mortgage and housing market an amount as big as 10% cash back payout on a property would have to be considered a type of mortgage fraud as technically they are proping up the values, right?



    Sorry, not trying to give you a hard time, just thinking out loud...

    TJ; you are right on the money. Generally if the Cash Back is not disclosed on the HUD, it would be fraud.

    If it is disclosed, banks look at it as a seller concession, and rarely will allow more than 6%.

    There are a lot of funky ways to get the money post closing, some right, some wrong, guess the feds have to figure it out.

    There are deals where the buyer is part of an investment group. The buyer contracts for property at 100% of the appraisal value. The developer has an agreement with the investment group to pay them 30% of the purchase price as a marketing fee or lien fee. At closing, on the HUD complying with RESPA, they get the money.

    I have about 100 homes in several communities where the developers are willing to do this.

    absolutely. There are ways to do this. and there are pretty ways to do it and sloppy ways to do it.

    There is a lot of heat out there right now and you have to be careful how you present things.
