Problem is, legally, syndicators laugh all the way to the bank.

The people that run these companies usually come from an "investment banking", real estate, or construction background.

If your really needed it one could also consider hard money though that will come with higher rates and getting someone to give you 300k first time might be harder than just getting loan then you could refinance it later.Since your a high net worth person I would also try talking to local/regional and even big bank lenders.

I would suggest looking at commercial banks or credit unions in the area to see if this is available. 

With a bit of planning and good operations, one can easily manage 20 to 30 properties without an assistant, with less than a day or two a month.There's lots of automated ways to check on rent, make deposits (my tenants deposit directly into a bank account), receive maintenance requests, have maintenance done, etc., etc.One thing I could argue is to have your tenants ONLY email you, especially for maintenance requests, and that email goes directly to the vendor that you have set up to handle it.

I see it as no different from borrowing from a bank.

Should I find a way to finance my purchase with the seller instead of a bank?

As I continue to gain experience and work toward my goals, I’ll be sure to leverage my team-building skills to establish a strong foundation for success.I also look forward to tapping into your banking expertise as new opportunities and questions arise.

Get as much info as you can. get their bank statements see what comes in and comes out.

I can check in with my local bank, but I don't want to waste their time when I'm not yet serious about doing a loan with them.
