Quote from @Zach Howard: Hi, I'm researching financing options for non-US citizens who wish to purchase multifamily investment properties - around 4 units to start with, for example. 

My personal example is a one bedroom condo I’ve held my entire adult life - and this is in a top tier market - Dupont Circle neighborhood in Washington DC.

While sophistication of your equity partners (private money lenders) will vary between residential and commercial, the principle of raising private capital is the same.You need to develop your own system which allows a constant stream of PML even when you don't need the funds and/or don't have an active deal under contract.For example; I raise private capital by offering free educational workshops for people with self-directed IRAs.

For example, I have a private lender that gives me 8-9% on the rate for rehab costs when I am usually getting about 10.25-11.25% on the rehab costs from hard money lenders, and the HML is not sending the full money upfront, but in draws (this is normal for most HML) which is a lot more cumbersome. 

Here's an example process and timeline for New Jersey: https://www.doorloop.com/laws/new-jersey-eviction-process

Example: If a business buys an oven and it costs $5,000, and $1,000 for installation and setup, and $200 of delivery and transport fee. 

for got to mention you can always go to your local state "secretary of state" website and search registered company details by registered agent( eg: Anderson Registered Agents), many states gives access to "articles of organization"  to get few examples :-)https://esos.nv.gov/EntitySear...https://bsd.sos.mo.gov/search Originally posted by @Tim Silvers:Originally posted by @Sam P.

You can hear real-world examples of how others have built their investment portfolio and (hopefully) learn to avoid their mistakes.4.

For example, I can't see a way to use any marketing packages???
