For buyers, down payments range from 20-30% and adjustable rates are generally about 75-100 basis points higher than a traditional mortgage (no fixed available).http://www.vacation-finance.com/index.htmhttp://www.dotcomdesignstudio.com/gallery/patrickmorrissey/fractionalfinancing.htmhttp://www.firstfractionalfunding.com/

I've done it the traditional way of using my credentials; credit, job/salary, personal info. to getting a FHA loan.

In RE we traditionally have done brrrr and STRs.  

Since you already have the cash, you can avoid that added cost.Lower Risk: By purchasing outright, you're minimizing your risk and giving yourself time to learn the process without the pressure of loan payments and short-term financing deadlines.Better Refinancing Terms: After you purchase and stabilize the property, you can refinance it with a traditional lender at a lower rate and pull cash out for your next investment.This approach keeps things simple and allows you to focus on learning without the complications of high-interest debt.Let me know if you need more advice!
