Hello everyone!

I'm a realtor that just found an awesome 3 unit Fannie Mae owned building on the south side of Chicago that I want to occupy!  My current obstacles are:

-it needs minor rehab, less than $20k for the entire building

-I do not have enough for the down payment

Any ideas on how to I can achieve this purchase via hard money lenders, JV partners, etc...? Thank you all in advance!
