Seller financing, lease options, or partnerships are alternative routes that might be suitable for your specific circumstances.Establish relationships with local real estate professionals such as agents, lenders, and contractors.

When you are considering fees for any sort of syndication, it's also important to evaluate the alternatives.

To reduce your long-term expenses, investigate several loan alternatives and interest rates.Property taxes, insurance, and possible homeowner association (HOA) dues are among the special costs associated with NYC.

Im exploring that alternative with the city.

Too undiversified for me though.Another alternative is to sell some of the physical properties and purchase an equal amount of a RE mutual fund to allow you to rebalance your real estate portfolio with non-real estate investments more easily and frequently in the future.

Inventory continues to be the biggest factor in keeping prices high throughout San Diego county.If you are one of the many buyers on hold due to interest rates, a good alternative is asking the seller to credit you for a 3-2-1 or 2-1 rate buy down.

I would love another company truck and could use a new excavator.

(Just park repair trucks there.)Some kind of delivery only business. 

If your STR income doesn't cut it for DTI, look into alternative financing like portfolio or hard money loans.

If not, what alternative strategies would you recommend?
