Many for large, institutional buyers and lenders. 

I go back and forth between 30 year fixed mortgages that I could finance these with vs the typical 5 year balloon, 20 year amm institutional loans.  

There were no issues, what these institutions try to do is stop deep pocket investors from gobbling up all the deals.  

After doing some research I came across IREM (Institute of Real Estate Management).

>> Self Directed IRA's are provided by specialty institutions with the staff-training and business model to deal with non-traditional assets.  

You may not be computing an APR if you are only doing commercial loans, while institutional lenders will generally provide it anyway.

If the lending institution requires the seller to sign a statement that to the best of his knowledge all work was done in compliance with state and local regulations, will he sign it?

The Urban Land Institute (ULI) is also a go-to resource for real estate development education, resources, and networking opportunities (similar to the AIA for architects).Good luck and keep us posted!

Now, if it's in a business name it will be commercial, if you sell sub-2 you can turn that loan into a residential category for yourself extending financing.So, with the exception of the credit issue, there is no difference between a private loan or institutional loan, a foreclosure is a foreclosure. :)

The best thing you can do if you want to get into property management is to join the Institute of Real Estate Management and get certified.
