Not enough Equity???

Not enough Equity???

I am new to REI. In reading through the forums I've noticed many comments that suggest that a deal does not have enough equity in it? What exactly does this mean? Is the equity being referred to the equity the seller has in the property? If not please explain. Thanks.

simply I guess!!

eg. 400k mortgage after payment of 10yrs the mortgage is reduce to 300k. the home owners equity would be 100k.


Equity

Typically property values will go up over time so if in 10 years you have paid off $100,000 that is only part of the equity, now the property is worth $450,000 so your equity is $150,000.
