Expect to put at least 15% down.If you want to wholesale or flip the deal it should look pretty enough to entice an investor.

It's too enticing not to give it a go! 

@Matt M. hahaha that makes it more enticing for me actually ;]@Charlie Cooper Yes I'm actively putting in offers in the Poconos, PA area for STRs.

'New York hard money lender' would be a reasonable starting point.If you've exhausted those above options, then you might, as mentioned, try looking at individual private money lenders, financing the deal out of your own pocket, or focusing on deals where the loan amounts are higher to entice a wider pool of lenders.Hope this helps!

In Ames it is very enticing to flip instead of BRRR as the rental rates are low and property values are high so just trying to maximize my capital on a BRRR.

I know there are a ton of naysayers out there about East Cleveland saying the area is a lost cause but that is what is enticing me to the area.

I also advertise for my open houses throughout the neighborhood and community, including the closest apartment building to entice renters to buy, just to name a few.  

So, a question to ask is how long they have had the property, or you can look it up.Another issue is too much down often entices shyster investors to take your money, design a default, take the property back and repeat.  

I only tell you this to entice you to get back out there and do it again.If you ever want to meet up I do a real estate meeting first Wed of each month at 128 Center St ( at the Hub Cap ).Also do an invested radio show every Sat morning at 10AM on WELI 960AM.Would love to have you tell your story to others on the radio or at the meetng because it is really awesome what you did.Again, great job!

It provides a better, more enticing solution to shopping exactly what we want (privacy, features, size, cost, etc) and getting the best and most memorable outcome.
