Where to find Gap Lenders?
I have a few deals I'm working to get seller financing on but will require a down payment. Ideally I can find a debt partner who's willing to gap lend those funds for a flat rate return, since the deals cash flow very well, and I'd prefer to retain as much equity as possible. For those who have raised funds like this before, what's the best places to look? I'd think people with funds they don't need for 1-5 years and with trust in you and the business would be ideal candidates.
