Does anyone have any strategies on how to a position a partnership with a private lender in order to start to obtain a Rental portfolio (with no out of pocket capital)

If you are looking to just obtain the 25% redemption rate set by the state for properties that are limited to 6 month redemptions.

@Carl RezaThe hardest part is taking the first step of knowing your goals and why you're investing, then doing a deal analysis with your market, assets, budgets, etc.

What type assets are you looking to invest in? 

In the Reno market, we have access to hyper-localized and up-to-date rental data and local knowledge of different areas, providing a more accurate picture.Remember, buying real estate is a liability until you sell it, at which point it becomes an asset.

I have a few concerns that I wanted to get people's thoughts on. 1 - Selling a quadraplex 10-20 years down the road seems like it may be challenging as the market for that type of asset is small.

You have to talk to the sponsor to find out the details on each particular deal. 1b) And the asset class matters too. 

I will say, services are much easier to obtain in the metro vs vacation market. 

Unfortunately, STRs as single family homes are still considered residential assets.

Fix-and-flip or builder’s risk insurance should be in place before work begins, and confirm your contractor obtains all necessary permits to avoid delays.
