My 1st question is: In negotiating from the bank, what is the best offer structure so that you get them interested and find success?

Different properties and finance and structure terms.Secondly even if you got a seller to give a second with no money down you still have for 5 - 12 units about 8k to 10k in closing costs with phase 1, cost reserve stable, appraisal, site inspection, survey, etc.Lenders typically want 75% LTV which even if a seller holds a 15% second you still have 10% needed.

Jon is absolutely right.I would establish a relationship with a private lender and structure a line of credit.

& just be careful when it comes to shelling out tons of money for these 'guru' places.

looking for deal structure where I would get interest on my loan and participate on the upside of the deal...

If so, I'd be interested in hearing how to begin structuring a deal like this.

I'm sure you can have the same memories as well as learning structure from going to these types of schools....?

How do you structure the terms though?

If I wanted to be a flipper, and I wanted to use an investor's money to buy property, what is a typical structure of that agreement?
