@Jordan GrahamCurious we had several people reach out to us about lending to them and they all have noted the “norm” in SD is they get a first from a national lender and are looking for a second to fund the remainder of purchase price and rehab - so 100% financing included rehab so they have no skin in game…I politely said umm no thank you - but was curious is that the private lending environment in SD?

They have more skin in the game then you do.Make sure you get clear title.

I'd want to check the PPM carefully and make sure they have a ton of skin in the game and the fees are not significant.

And also, I think it’s wrong to be telling people of color that they’re not gonna be successful without going to college due to the color of their skin. 

In my opinion it’s important to have skin in the game with a cash down payment, but that’s one area too that could be negotiable.

The buyer has $60,000 skin in the game, which he stands to lose if he defaults. 

The amount we earn is often based on how much skin we have in the game.

The lender will typically want to see that you have money in the deal (sometimes called "skin in the game" - HATE THIS PHRASE, but it is used often in the business).

I guess those type of people just get under my skin.. the last thing I wanted to seem was like a pushover.. because my mom would tell me how they are rude to her.
