Remember that you are a new to real estate so you may be more of a riskier borrower in the eyes of legitimate lender, anybody that is guaranteeing 100% financing with the cheapest rates you have ever seen and minimal points up front, is likely full of BS.

But until then I'm trying to catch up to speed with books, pod cast and mentoring sessions to make sure that I have enough of an understanding to be successful in this venture.  

I have a deal on a Mobile Home Park that I'm looking at, and wanted to get some more experienced eyes on the deal.

Many buyers won't bat an eye at needing to pay cash for keys as long as the numbers work.

@Ethan Wagner, good catch! 

Because your market's going to a fall position, and in a fall position you have to buy renovate and flip it, before the market catches up to you on the downside.

You'll just have to catch the video playbacks the next day and I think you won't be able to save your calculator projects...but you're in a good place.

Your thought is noble to help a friend, but the only way to do it without them catching on is to buy it and close and then wholetail it to your friends.

The rents will catch up to where you need them to be eventually, just be realistic that if you are 95% leveraged today, you wont cash flow today.

I'm particular to that book as that was the very first REI book I read (minus Rich Dad Poor Dad) and it really opened my eyes up to what is possible.
