Credit cards: we'd like to avoid this at all costs because of high interest rates.Hard moneyPrivate moneyAre there any other loan types or financing options we should consider to deal with upfront CAPEX in the first 1-2 years until we have a larger CAPEX fund built up? 

**fine print - Individual results will vary by the individual tenants credit profile, zip code and claims history....Here is an Ohio example of someone I quoted last week - $15k in property, $100k liability, $1k deductible premium was $187 year / $16 month.Increasing Property to $30k and Liability to $1 Mill the total premium is $275 year / $23 month.

I got 20 or nay 25%down. 800 credit.

@Conrad Kostrzewa For example a "good" house hack I had offer previously on in Pilsen.... 302k with 5k closing credit.

I've since found a couple credit unions in FL where I reside and have also found two credit unions that will do it.

@Mike Ball Send me a PM and I can give you a Credit Union guy in Columbia that may do it. 

It needs more than the $10k personal loan my credit union offers.

Zeus Mortgage Bank, Jet Lending, Investor Loan Source and of course your local bank and credit unions. 

You can easily ask a lender to show you some numbers on it, without even checking your credit, to see if it's worth it or not.Feel free to tag me with any other questions. 

There is no deed of trust or note so there is no lender worried you will default.Financing a property in the name of an LLC is more difficult unless you can show credit history for the LLC itself or that it can put up collateral such as other real property equity.
