I've exhausted the BP List for "Rental" type of loans (Not fix and flips), and wanted to explore if any of you have a "happy" / ongoing relationship with Mortgage providers?

Milken conducted exhaustive research on companies - concluding that high yielding 2nd lien loans could in fact be a safe investment - in spite of the term 'junk bonds' they were branded with.

I don’t want to exhaust all my savings and have a potential investor who would give me the whole amount for 8% annualized.  

It ALWAYS needed the coils cleaned (I had a Golden Retriever and she loved the sound of the exhaust to sleep by) I learned to get every spec of dust and dog hair away myself but still it didn't last too long.

However, pay attention to the neighborhood - everything about a property other than the location can be improved.When all options are exhausted and you are about to throw in the towel, try shifting markets to the mid-west(Ohio,Wisconsin,Missouri) before you do.Best of luck.

I'd begin by really exhausting all your options of how you can increase your capital - can you get a raise, work more hours, cut back on your spending, borrow funds, take funds from other assets.

Kitchen (Install range, Window, Exhaust, Dishwasher, sink)2.

That is by no means an exhaustive list, and all forms of GP compensation should be clearly disclosed in the documentation.There are both fund models and single asset syndication models.

My 2 cents to the mix would be The ADU is the only way so far [SB 9 and 10 not withstanding] - You should be able to take the SFR and do an attached JADU up to 500 sq ft, then you can [lot size permitting and every city has its own code so do some research] another detached or even attached regular ADU - and as long as you live there as owner occupied you can live in the SFR part, rent out the ADU and JADU- the twist we do is to rent out 30+ days as a furnished rental.

From small works I've done before, i.e installing an exhaust fan, I bought the fan online, got it delivered to the house.
