For example, when you get into larger apartments or commercial properties, a loan can often be obtained, non-recourse meaning the only thing the lender can do if the borrower stops paying is foreclose on the house, and the loan is based on the merits of the investment and the cash flow from the investment and not based at all on the borrower or the borrower’s credit.However, what we mostly see when a deal funds itself is when the investor is being creative with a highly motivated and desperate seller OR with a seller who just no longer wants the property and does not need the cash up front.So for example if a buy and hold investor finds a rental property from another investor, the other investor might finance the deal.

Obviously you can't do this if you can't afford to pay the extra that the tenant doesn't cover, but you don't think there is any merit in investing in Class A Properties that are going to appreciate, have great tenants, have rent growth, etc?

Does anyone know some merits and demerits to these?

My question, is there any merit to getting my RE license in one of those states, or should I just stick with California?

There is no merit in this case and will surely be dismissed.  

My post was a broad brush hypothetical based on a question about the merit of using CC 0% offers.

Other folks have commented about the suboptimal merits of this deal so I wont pile on.Let me know if you have any other questions about title agencies or investing in specific neighborhoods in Indy - always happy to share. 

I do agree that each property should be treated on it's own merits - but then, I still like percentages]. 

in my opinion the only lawsuts anonymous filings protect you from are frivolous lawsuits with very little merit. 

I am pretty sure.I think you have two issues. and maybe @Brian Burke Or @Ivan Barratt  could chime in to help U.I can see the attorney advising you on the X s and Os but as to the merit of the deal.
