John,You do not need all of that.What you need is a good commercial broker with a network of good lenders,title,etc.Each one of those types of assets of triple net you mentioned have their own finance structures.For example a pharmacy you can get in with 5% down and non-recourse with a 25 year term and amort.There are no rent bumps in almost all cases until the option period kicks in and it is minimal.Pharmacies are more like an annuity that you will own free and clear after 25 years throwing off good cash flow when it's paid off but being next to zero cash flow during the term..Until then you get depreciation.The lenders will usually go to DSCR of 1.01.With restaurants most are recourse unless investment grade and the lenders want a DSCR of 1.25 to 1.30.With restaurants you typically achieve rent bumps of 1.5 to 2 percent annually but because of DSCR are putting down 20 to 25% of LTV.How much money do you have today so far??

I'm making an offer on a small multifamily non performing note and will negotiate with the seller to transfer title in lieu of chasing the deficiency, or worst case just foreclose.

This program is only targeting non govt insured loans in the first place.

Owners may also be able to get the tribe to buy out their homes, and use them for housing for tribe members, or they may have a non profit that could use for low income housing.

As of today, my credit is about 530 and I'm working with someone to get it raised about 150 points in the next couple months (should be before end of year). I want to buy a house but I haven't had a job in years.

I'm...

Were you to flip homes in your name only, you would not be allowed the two different tax treatments to my knowledge.

Are you putting down a size able non-refundable down payment??

The second was a property that we bought at a discount in a cash deal - the money came from a combo of cash, and borrowing from a HELOC on our primary.For our third - which we are currently saving for, after an extremely bumpy 2011 (non RE reasons) - we will be going with conventional again.
