Small structural issues that came up during inspection which had scared off previous buyers, allowing us to negotiate hard on the price.How did you finance this deal?

Yes, structured as a syndication. 

If you think it's a solid opportunity, move forward with a full property inspection, and again, de-brief with your agent and firm up all associated repair costs before the inspection contingency expires...exit the deal if you need to, or stay the course.This is a joint effort lead entirely by your agent...very structured.

The reason I ask is that the method of acquisition has a big impact on the financing structures possible.
