Brad:  Syndications are the #1 asset class for SDIRAs. 

Invests in a syndication as an LP but does not materially participate in this specific property but 5.

But the struggle is real right now…  It will be challenging to find banks that will lend with less than 20% down.

The only loans I see non recourse nowadays are those lending to a SDIRA which they have to be non recourse or an unsophisticated private lender.

By gaining insight into the investor’s goals—whether it’s flipping properties, acquiring rental units, or developing new constructions—the broker can tailor their approach and identify the most suitable lending options.Once the broker comprehends the investor's needs, they leverage their extensive network of private lenders.

The bank I have used, Lyons National Bank, lends to me through my LLC.

Quote from @Amanda O'Kelly: Has anyone used W2 Cap Capital for lending?

Now do you understand his version of "gator lending"?  

I am a hard money lender based in Washington and we also lend in Oregon

Now to the benefits of Lending - Lending can be more liquid and the cost to sell less.
