Your case is indeed a challenging one, especially when traditional lenders are hesitant. 

Traditional 30 year investment property home mortgage at 3.25%.What was the outcome?

Hey Andrew, for a 12-unit property, traditional lenders like Fannie and Freddie could be great options, especially if it's stabilized with a strong upside.

I am also a huge fan of real estate and for the past 50 years there's been a way to combine both.By leveraging a Self-Directed IRA, real estate investors enjoy both the traditional advantages of property ownership and the additional tax benefits of retirement accounts, creating a powerful wealth-building strategy.

The crypto can be considered as EMD or down payment, the rest of the transaction will happen just as if you were running a traditional transaction.If a seller is completely against the idea of receiving crypto, you can always use a service like Bitpay to convert the cryptocurrency to cash.Last but not least, I always ask clients... why sell your crypto asset when you use it to secure a loan?

Right now we're shopping around for loans outside of traditional lenders. 

;) Hi Janet, Are you a hard money lender or a traditional lender?

This is done via a traditional cap table.

We've sent out a cohost request and most hosts are asking ~22%, which is higher than what ABB suggests - but seems to be in line with what traditional local prop management places charge.My question: Long term obviously it makes sense to learn to do this all myself and be self sufficient.
