I don't mind putting skin in the game as long as I know that the lender is not going to leave me hanging at closing.

The accredited investor is the one putting skin in the game.

They want skin in the game, you will be able to find lenders with splits such as 10% down from you, 15% carried by the seller (or more) and the remainder financed by them.

We've worked with a number of investors over the years that used us for the exit strategy.You can certainly find cash buyers that will buy the houses and utilize your lease option program as an exit, but it's not as simple as that.It sounds like you are looking at doing this from the aspect of helping people, but something I learned early on was you have to get thick skin and also learn very well how to screen people and for a lease option to work, you really need to become knowledgeable in mortgage guidelines.If someone has $300 to put down, they aren't going to buy a house.From the cash buyer perspective, they need equity and a return on investment.Yes, we help a LOT of people with our LO program, but for it to work you have to approach it first from how to structure the lease option properly, which means the numbers etc.If you first approach it from how to help people with bad credit, you will get burned, and so will the cash buyer.

I find if the tenants do not have any "skin" in the game.
