If you were getting a mortgage, typically the borrower has to have some money to put in (downpayment).  

However, they are weary of being on the title in the case of a lawsuit for asset protection.Here is my proposition and I would love to know what the BP community thinks.We create a LLC between myself and my parents and the LLC goes on the mortgage and the title of the house.

And at no fault of their own – cashflow is what they were SOLD on.Here's what I want you to understand about “buy and hold” residential real estate:Let’s use a single family home with a property value of $300,000Let’s use an initial loan amount of $240,000Let’s use an interest rate of 7.25%And I’m going to give you $150 of cash flow per monthUse a 5% appreciation amount for your propertyLet’s see what happens after 5 years:After 5 years…$150 of cash flow per month = $9,000Your mortgage has been paid down to $227,000 = $13,000Your property is now worth $382,000 = $82,000So that’s $9,000 of cash flow, $13,000 of principle buy down, and $82,000 of appreciation.

this could be a good solution but you should still at least break even with LTRs as a backup plan. note that even a breakeven deal is only breakeven for a short time. rents go up, mortgage goes down. you could also start looking offmarket!

To be prequalified you are probably looking at a $400-$500k mortgage

Doing so would give me two mortgages and the Heloc.

I think with proper education and guidance you’ll excel at a much faster rate and save a lot of money in the long run.

I have clients (Im a mortgage broker) who over leverage with gap funders and HMLs on purchases and even THEY have valuation and cash issues when concluding a project.

I would do this carefully through a trusted mortgage broker. - You could also house hack again
