finding a partneto make a deal happen with 0 to little money down

[Danyale Martinez]

Hello Bigger Pockets community, 

I'm a new investor that's having a hard time coming up with the money to purchase a duplex 2/3 bedrooms both with 2 full bathrooms. The asking price is $230,000. Please pitch me ideas on how to make this work, or partners, etc....Thanks

@Danyale Martinez you're going to have to assemble a pro forma to share and present with potential partners. Have you analyzed the property to determine if it is even a deal worth pursuing? As others have mentioned, you can house hack the property with an owner-occupied low downpayment loan. Raising private capital without a prior track record is going to have challenges. I agree with Debbie, start attending local REIA meet-ups to form connections and develop relationships with investors who have money to put to work but don't have any deals lined up. Hope this helps!
