Now that doesn't mean you can't get creative on your own to avoid paying retail. 

Or any other creative way to get funds?

If you want to be an investor, sell the SFR and focus on MFR.I'm a local broker and investor here, and I manage over 100 investment properties (primarily creative and furnished rentals, Airbnb, etc). 

The BRRRR method and house flipping are both fantastic strategies, especially if you're resourceful and willing to put in the work.If you’re working with limited capital, partnering with others or exploring creative financing options like private money lenders or seller financing might be worth considering.

Quote from @Jeffrey Alan Slachetka: Good morning, everyone,I have an opportunity that seems ripe for a creative deal structure.

They show some creative ways to borrow money or to payoff debt using credit lines but their disclaimer is to see your cpa and/or lawyer.

Lauderdale, FL• North Palm Beach, FL• Plantation, FL• Pompano Beach, FLThese acquisitions were done creatively, assuming the existing loans via subject-to deals without inspections.

But this does get me thinking about creative ways to get this done. 

We've also postponed any new capital raising activities since deploying new subscriber capital into distressed assets that we cannot resolve quickly does not make sense.This virus has definitely forced distressed-debt managers to become more creative and patient in a market that they cannot effectively control.

I am very creative and find solutions where others seem to see roadblocks.
