Financing through alternative methods? Business loan?

[Mikey Cas]

If I wanted to take out a 'personal loan' or a 'business loan' rather than a traditional mortgage and use it for a real estate investment such as rehabing and then flipping,or renting out, is this possible?? Only reason I ask is because I found a potential deal, and the seller is agreeing on $11,500 for the home. I already spoke to a few lenders, I dont think any mortgage companys will lend any less than $50,000. Would a deal that small have to be cash for it to work smoothly. Thanks
