Hi Greg, There are a few ways you can go about optimizing the loan to access more capital. 

It is not  optimal for long term debt. 

I recognize that there are going to be sub-to that were owner financed at high LTV (>=95%) that barely appreciated, but it is likely below 0.1% of listings and the odds of it being an optimal investment purchase make the odds even longer.I would look at sub-to as potentially a way to get way below current rate loan and not as a low down option.  

Overall, I had a decent experience throughout the process as it generated good passive income and my involvement was minimal.However, now that I have more time at my hand, I am interested in making the process and my investments more optimal in terms of cash flow.

Hi Gordon, I am interested in whether you were able to find the correct entity structure for this partnership/operator from a cost/risk/return optimization perspective.

I'll pay you for the site registration and for some SEO optimization work to get your site appearing first in google searches.

What you're not supposed to do is be in a deep cash flow negative position; so for that you use less leverage, negotiate a better price, or find a way to optimize revenue better if not three. 

Make sure you are optimized there first, then branch out.
