Creative way to finance when we already own a primary residence

[Ryan Detzel]

I want to try a flip first to see if A) I can handle the time commitment and B) is it a good way to raise funds for future investment properties. My question is what's the best way to get a loan without the 20% down?

• We currently own our house so this would be a second home
• We have credit scores in the 800's
• We make ~$250k/year

We have (or better yet, my wife wont let me) spend that much on a downpayment so I need to get creative.

Do I have any options or should I save/convince her to risk some money on this?
