If you’re short on down payments, here are a few strategies to consider:Leverage Equity: If you own any properties with equity, consider tapping into that through a cash-out refinance or HELOC to fund your down payments.Seek Joint Ventures: Partner with other investors who can provide the down payment while you manage the property or contribute in other ways.Explore Creative Financing: Look into options like seller financing or lease options, which might require less upfront capital and can be structured to fit your needs.Consider Private/Hard Money Lenders: These lenders can offer flexible terms and quicker approval compared to traditional banks.

Scenario:A lender had limited communication with the borrower throughout the loan term, resulting in misunderstandings and lack of alignment on project goals and expectations.Mistake:Miscommunication led to issues that could have been addressed early on, contributing to project delays and difficulties in loan repayment.Lesson Learned:Maintain open and regular communication with borrowers.
