Seeking input on this scenario. Working on a seller financing transaction where I am the buyer of a SF home in Chicago. I need to put $90k down as a down payment. I’m trying to avoid having to use my own cash as I have $ tied up in other investments right now.

I’m assuming my main options in this case would be: (i) borrow the money from friends/fam, who may or may not want equity in the deal, or (ii) private money/hard money? Any suggestions for private money lenders who could help with down payment financing? As always, appreciate any input from the BP forum. Thx! 

Hi Maria - would be great to connect, see what kind of deals you’re working on. LMK. Thx.

Hi all - looking for investors/partners to provide capital to grow my rental portfolio. Have a few LTR's currently and am looking to grow in both LTR and STR. Seeking investment partners to provide capital for down payments while I do the legwork (think GP/LP type). I'm very active/knowledgeable in the Chicago market and have my eyes on a few others around the country (Bozeman, NJ shore, Philly, San Diego). Would love to connect with investors who may be looking for passive partnership opportunities or diversification of assets in RE. Open to suggestions. Thx all!

More conventional loans vs. HM.

Hi all - any recommendations for good mortgage brokers/lenders in Chicago? Ideally with good investment knowledge. Thx!
