One thing that groups can provide (whether it's in person or online) is accountability, experience, systems, tools and resources. 

This approach helps ensure that buyers have a clear understanding of what they are purchasing, reducing the likelihood of surprises and issues later in the process.Of course, this is market location and cycle dependant.

The term syndication often is used in a multifamily/commercial or other real estate transaction, where a property is being purchased and the GP needs to raise capital (equity, often) to purchase the asset.

The loan often has two components: (1) purchase and (2) renovation where the latter is usually funded through reimbursement.As an FYI, lenders usually require the property be non-owner occupied.

They'd be making payments to me toward the purchase price -- let's say $250/mo for 5 years, then a lump sum. 

Property was purchased for 130k.

We are in the process of purchasing a home in Bremerton and we live in CA at the present time.

You can schedule online.

When you turn a personal residence into a rental, you want to make sure you calculate your basis properly.Your basis will be purchase price + improvements made to the house since time of purchase(Assuming the FMV at time of conversion is atleast this amount).Best of luck!

I was thinking to utilize a DSCR loan for my 2nd Multi family purchase this year?
