If you don't want to put a single dollar down then you can just structure a 100% financing with the sellerHey Ko, it’s nice see you again.I’ve spoken with the seller and they want a 10% down.I think I’m going to wholesale this deal if I can get good terms, but every once in a while I come across a good deal that I would like to purchase as a buy and hold.what type of loans would you recommend for traditional buy and hold?

Alternatively, a private or hard money loan could provide faster funding if traditional lending timelines don’t work, with the option to refinance once the build is complete.

It’s important to ensure you’re comfortable with these risks and consult a financial advisor.If you choose to use a HELOC, consider traditional financing or private loans as alternatives if you prefer not to risk your home.As for your first rental, markets in the Midwest and Southeast offer great opportunities with turnkey properties that are tenant-ready and appreciating.

If you are open to non-traditional methods of financing, you could use a debt service loan to bypass that requirement.

In your case, if you’re working with older sellers, you could even use some of the funds to pay for their senior living stays while you wait for the renovations to finish, which would take a huge burden off them and solidify the deal in a way that works for both sides.I think this type of financing works great because it keeps the deal flowing and ensures you're able to close without the traditional loan roadblocks.

you will not find a cashflowing property at 100% financing whether its with a traditional loan and heloc or whatever the terms.
