Haven't been able to get financing because we can't put skin in the game, so we gotta get creative.Our plan is to talk to the seller about doing seller financing, with the seller paid their interest (and the principal, of course) when the property sells post rehab.....so that would take care of the seller.  

If they are, the have some skin in the game to make this project a priority.

This would definitely increase your cash flow position and you would have more skin in the game for the mortgage lender.A couple years down the road, you could do a HELOC to pull cash out for your next wealth-building purchase.Good Luck!

A true buyer will put skin in the game, spend money and get inspections done, and make a legitimate attempt to close the deal if the inspections clear.

In order for both side to have “skin” in the game I have either a $50 a month pet rent OR one months security deposit.

I am looking for a mentor, not looking to share profits(unless I have some skin in the game), otherwise I am willing to do some of the day to day stuff that you don't want to spend your time on. 

From experience, hard money guys like to see at least 15k (your skin in the game) in the bank before they will give the green light on funding your projects.I have not personally done any wholesaling, but from what I have gathered, you would have plenty money left over for a good marketing campaign!

With conventional financing, you have to have "skin" in the game.

@Darnell Palmer Lenders want you to have some skin in the game if it isn't a primary residence.

If you put together the right deal and have some of your own skin in the game, finding financing for small professionally managed multi's shouldn't be impossible.The easiest way to find out if you can put together a super deal is to TRY.
