Some/many lenders don't like a 2nd mortgage behind their first (like the skin in the game), however there are both bridge or permanent financing options out there allowing you to leverage anywhere from 90% CLTV - 100% CLTV, but don't expect good terms...

Many opt for other investing methods in their SDIRA like private lending, crypto, private equity...anything except collectibles and life insurance.Note that a Solo 401k is exempt from UBIT on leveraged real estate so if you have self employment activity and no full time employees save for you and your spouse you should consider the Solo K as an option. 

In light of this, I have been exploring the possibility of pursuing creative finance options, specifically seller finance deals, as a potential means to achieve my goals.

Two years ago, this approach would not have been an option.2.

But it would be nice to have an option to uncheck that box this time around since they're already in place.

We overthink real estate...Just find a place that people with options want to live. 

Happy to help you with either option, send me a DM.

However, there are better options than $180 a month and $1000 for a WP site. 

An option to better understand and see the model without having to spend all the time is turnkey interesting.

If that’s not an option the cheapest and easiest option two would be to use NORTHWEST REGISTERED AGENT out of okemos Michigan.
