I want to show my investor that I am vested and have a lot of skin in the game.

There are more than 1 way to skin to get your deal to the closing table.

If my ultimate buyer's goal is to own a salon with units (arghh) then thel opportunity could be to buy at big discount, stop the contractor bleeding, re-sell the property subject to the existing first and wrap it with a second after getting either a big down payment or other major skin-in-the-game consideration from the ultimate buyer.

I am curious, what is the difference between a contemporary and a modern home?

A bonus for being early and/or a percentage of money saved on the project.You really want to give them skin in the game so that they will respond more or less as you would do when on the site.

Enough lime on your skin and it will burn badly.

:woohoo: :clap: The bird dog does sound like a partner as they have skin in the game.

They may not go for a 80/20 situation because then you have no skin in the game.

Thanks again, Ill advise as we progressMattMatt,To elaborate a bit.You want the maximum cash in your pocket so you can move on to other deals and lower your exposure to this deal.That could mean proceeds from a loan or a down payment.The down payment is all about the buyer having skin in the game.

But there is more than one way to skin a cat, I have found a way to get around all of the red tape.
