@Arick Holts @Mindy Jensen Thanks for the tips!

In my mind I feel like I probably need to get a few deals under my belt before I can even think about this, and I'd want to involve an attorney in setting up the agreements.  

@Dave McEvoy, from day one, you MUST have your end-Buyer's point of view in mind!ie

If that and eating through a tube does not change your mind, I am willing to meet you and help any way I can.  

Very cool @Mindy Jensen!

@Mindy Jensen  I do, but towards the end of the call (when I realized I screwed up) I asked if he minded if I had the address to look the place up.

Thanks for the insight Mindy.

Mindy Jensen I agree that most of these are only speculations.

Thanks @Mindy Jensen.Hi @Lennie Brown,The easiest way to get help with closing costs, that also will not make your offers weaker in the eyes of sellers and listing agents, is to set it up for 1-2 punch financing.

What you need to keep in mind is that when financing a property you can not offer personal guarantee and the loan must be non-recourse.
