Without my wife's direct involvement, I think some of our homes would have struggled to stay afloat.   

Specifically, I am interested in learning more about syndications, working with lenders, lawyers, CPAs, and other professionals involved in cross-border real estate deals.

For an SBA hotel loan, the SBA may guarantee say 30% of the loan and a traditional bank takes the next 50%...total LTV/LTC of 80%...will vary by business but it's higher/better than the previous replies (otherwise, you would just get a traditional commercial loan without the SBA involved). 

Probably starting mid-year 2025 hopefully those are leased up and stabilized and then we're off to the races again in SGF.You could also just simplify everything and park it in one house in Highland Park. 

Are you looking to just put the money to work or looking to be personally involved in getting, rehabbing, and dispo of deals?
