Quote from @Kevin Akers: If you have everything else in place (financing, permits, etc) and have underwritten the deal where the numbers make sense you can work on raising the 50K from private investors. 

Through a lot of conversations and connections, someone has presented me with the opportunity to buy an 8-unit multifamily property.

John - Is their other collateral that could be brought into the conversation?

You could pay them a flat interest rate on the funds they contribute, similar to a private lender, or offer a percentage of the profits to align their success with yours.

There's a lot of conversations about markets in the forums as well. 

Use your house hack as a conversation starter to open doors to mentorships, partnerships, or off-market deals.Good luck!

Hard Money Loans: These are short-term loans from private lenders based on the property's value rather than your credit score.

Strictly from a private money lens: If you're open to a 2nd position private money loan against your STR's, it's possible.

I’m still working the in’s and out’s of BP but I will try and send you a private message. 

I know I can reach out to some mortgage brokers to connect me with a private lender for most of the mortgage and then I would just need another lender to supply the down payment and renovation money.
