In most cases, the lender will require the person who is providing the capital to sign for the mortgage.

@Neil SmithPull a list from the auditor of what you're looking to call, load it into a dialer, call the numbers and ask to speak with the owner (their first name) - Introduce yourself by being personable (Who you are(first and last name - age/background), where you're from(local guy), and get straight to the point - why you want to buy and if they're interested in hearing an offer on their property - it's like a quick handshake over the phone. 

I personally have invested in a couple syndications in the last 3 years and none have been completed yet.

One maintenance person can stop by 4 properties in one day to take care of issues.

Personally, I prefer purchasing a property that is not new construction.

Reasonable accommodation does not extend to allowing safety issues to go unresolved or personal property to be damaged. 

So if I buy a replacement property worth $500k, can I use proceeds from the personal residence half to cover the other $150k?

You can look it up yourself, but maybe just maybe the person that installed the tile didn’t take that precaution and now the install failed.

You're clearly a hard-working person with a talent for personal finance and real estate acquisition as compared to the layperson.

I currently reside in a higher-end condo in Orlando, Florida, and obtaining a mortgage with a sub 3% interest rate was crucial for making it a feasible investment.Allow me to share a personal anecdote that sheds light on the condo buying experience.
