I’m curious what is the most interesting or creative way of financing you have seen ?

I was wondering if anyone here used a real estate investment company to invest money in properties? I’m looking for low risk and low cost to invest. Any ideas greatly appreciated. What is the Annual Yield, the term and Minimum Investment Interest Paid Monthly. And what company did you use?

Thanks

Also a friend of mine buys vacant land that owes back taxes for cheap, and then lists the plots for sale with owner financing, often $99 down and they make payments, if they default, you keep the $ and the land!
