Alternative Lending

Is it fair to expect a lender-- ANY lender-- to put up 100% of the loan? No, and none of the dozens of lenders I work with will allow someone a loan without some skin the the game of at least 10%. Some require more.

Those days are gone... thankfully. Why thankfully? Because if we didn't learn the lessons from this past recession, we are doomed to repeat it.

All that said, there are a smattering of funding providers out there who are looking at deals that make sense. A little surfing can't help, right?
