So my question is, whats the best way to get some skin in the game with Buy and hold with fair credit and low capital. any information is useful.

Again, other might feel differently here.b) Skin in the game: as a conservative investor, I understand that the dirty secret of industries that the waterfall compensation is in the line with me and incentivizes sponsors to take more risk.

However I would not consider them to be truly passive because they do not put any skin into the game like a good passive investment does (via a sizable coinvestment).

The interest rate is determined by the following:Your experience as an investor - the longer you've been an investor, the better the rateYour Mid Credit Score - Usually need at least a 650The property's merit - where it's located - metropolitan area is bestYou need skin in the game - in most cases 20% downNeed an exit strategy - lenders want to know what you plan to do with the property & how you plan to pay off the loan: ie.: Fix/Flip properties, construction, land loansWhat are your financials?  

Just ask yourself the question in reverse:  Would you invest your money with someone who had no experience and no financial skin in the game?  

Since it's an investment and not a personal residence lenders will require you to put some more skin in the game and that's why you're seeing the bigger down payments.

They have more skin in the game then you do.

Do not be surprised, if most people will want you to have "skin in the game" (cash).

Gosh, I sound ridiculous saying that, but I've been buying MFs and SFs and I have the money and thick skin to go bigger.

Regional lenders, however, were not happy with the strategy and would not give me credit for the value I created because they wanted me to have skin in the game.
