Instead of paying down someone else’s mortgage, you’re setting yourself up for bigger and better deals down the road.Your first deal is going to depend on a lot of factors—how important is location?

Instead of juggling that distant duplex or diving into flips, what if you sold it now (or soon) and rolled some of that equity into a deal with us?

I am one of those premier agents, just not in your area, but I can vouch for the service.At least… I think I know what I'm doing… 😛You can also just contact the big box real estate for brokerage's ask for their broker who deals with listing investment property.

You will find some fascinating information about his previous dealings.

It’s also worth considering a multi-family property for your first deal since it can help with cash flow.

So, basically you are using the $500k in crypto to secure what would normally be your 20-25% down payment in a normal financed deal.

Lastly, the price point is still very cheap here in the sense that you can still find investment deals that hit the 1% rule for 120-180k!

Our bank will let us use equity that exceeds 25% across multiple properties that are either owned free and clear or where they hold the first so long as the deal still cash flows with however much cash is brought to the table.

That was an excellent non-answer to my question, Skyler. hihi :)No they are not all the same. some are only interested in dealing with conventional purchases other are as you say better at handling assignments or double closes, some are commercial specialty, etc....A investor friendly one would be, at least from my point of view, one that understands there may need to be some last minute wheeling, dealing, and adjustment made to close a deal, understand what needs to be done and do not freak out about creative deals.Maybe my understanding or thoughts are wrong but that's what I meant by investor friendlyregards :) 

One didn't make your list.1) I see people all the time raising money for real estate deals but they call it a partnership either because they are ignorant of the law or they are trying to avoid paying for all the legal work.
