Pick one and commit.

In other words, be selective as to which assets you order a search on, but be thorough in your due diligence on assets you are committed to buying. 

And, if the money is borrowed and you lie on your loan application about that (they will explicitly ask and you will have to explicitly lie if you want the loan) then you're committing loan fraud.If you have to turn right around and sell this property for some reason, I,as the lender of the 20% down, will suffer a 50% loss. 

But when I bought property in Kelowna BC and got a CA bank loan the bank for sure wanted to create a relationship with me as a client.. brokers are just not as prevalent. in the US brokers for these types of loans are out there by the thousands some good some not so good.. when you find a good one you want to be loyal to them.

Personal guarantees add an extra level of commitment from the borrower.

I can definitely see how a commitment on that partnership is very risky.

What is the time commitment to be successful in this strategy?
