Deal is ready to close Escrow contacts lender for funding and then the excuses start and or they just ghost them.Once caught basically all websites are taken down phone numbers e mails killed etc etc..

Has anyone used HomeTap for funding leverage given that there's no monthly payment for the duration of the term?

You must establish a contingency fund, pay closing costs, and save for the down payment.

A unique funding source4.

I have borrowed against the property to fund other development projects via a heloc.

After getting a good amount of equity in the house for future HELOC funding, I was going to move out of it and use the property as a rental utilizing a lease option, or, rent to own agreement. 

My mentor left me his home, an inherited IRA, and some brokerage money. 

I see how they would fund based on the numbers of a long term rental, short term rental, and midterm rental.

However, if they were to start a fund or syndication program, I’d be most interested in investing as a passive investor in their offerings. 

@Larry Caper if your goal is to do your own deals and you do not want to expose your investors to other operators then you need to create a fund of funds.
