In normal times, I stick to alternatives (commercial, non qm, hard money, portfolio etc). 

Syndications can be a great passive investment and there are lots of sponsors here on BP.You mentioned you're unsure about tying up a large sum of money for an extended period of time like a syndication would require so an alternative would be to become a HML and act as the bank. 

Is there an alternative and if so what are the benefits ?

Hello BP family, I'm stuck and need some advice, I have two condos in NJ that cash flow well, and I tried to refinance but due to high investor vs owner units I couldn't do a cash out refinance,  so I'm putting it on the market . but I was wondering if someone else ran into this problem before and also, what other alternative can I have if it doesn't sell ?

Alternatively, there is option C: wait a bit and see what happens with COVID, since we're still in uncharted territory here.

Some one else can speak on if theirs alternatives or ways around it. 

(I was looking at that market as an alternative).

Any advice on house hacking in this area or any alternative/better ways to start in Canada?

I am familiar with resources such as white pages that cost money, but wanted to check and make sure there were no alternatives to finding this information!
