From a rate perspective, likely is not close to making sense at the moment, would need rates to drop further, however if value has increased and you are looking for cash-out, that motivation (any lower rate as icing on the cake / secondary concern) it could make sense to look into

tons of real estate investing podcast on apple podcast such as BiggerPockets, Lifetime Cashflow through Real Estate, Multifamily investing made simple, just to name of few. don't forget to listen to motivational and self improvement podcasts because mindset is everything 

For example, Fountain Square or the Near Eastside will jump to 30 days on market around Halloween, despite the fact Broad Ripple or Fishers will remain ultra-competitive because of their respective higher demand / low inventory. 

You can find motivated sellers and still get some deals. 

Today the real need is quality lead lists of actual motivated, stressed sellers!!!!!!!   

My take on TT is that they give you just enough info in everything they do to remain interested and get hyped up, and then they push hard to sell their coaching. 

Were super happy we didnt panic and remained calm. 

With less demand, sellers may be more motivated to offload properties, especially those facing higher holding costs due to rising interest rates.Also, the election season plays a major role with what's going on. 

I'm looking for a lender that will move forward in financing the remaining 70-80%, in 1st position, alongside a seller 2nd of 20-30%, totaling 100% CLTV.

You just gotta do what investors were doing before the Crash - scrounge for motivated sellers!
