Hello, I'm looking to close on a property sourced from a wholesaler (numbers work and the wholesaler fee is reasonable).

I will take any constructive criticism but if you are rude or mean, don't bother.  

@Angeli Castrence, as Bryan mentioned, due diligence is critical when working with turnkey companies.

Otherwise it is confusing and a source of conflict later when they think the tenant believes they have a “credit towards damage.”

@Andrew Lavier You will get the best, detailed answers by going directly to the source!

HMLs are good but they aren't always the best source of help fund deals.I hope this helps answer your questions. 

I’d say the most important thing is finding the source.  

You won't figure this out from Costar or Zillow or most other data sources. 

You can search online for companies in your area that lend that way.But I'm guessing if you talked to the people around you, showed them what real estate investing can do, and offered a good enough return, you could pool money from multiple family and friend sources to make it happen.Most people aren't sitting on tens of thousands of dollars, but most people have 401ks or IRAs and if they trust you, and you are trustworthy, you can teach them how to pull loans on their retirement accounts that don't penalize them, and give you access to more money than you realize you had access to.Probably start there.

Hands down the best source of information.
