Banks want you to have some skin in the game when purchasing properties these days.

generally A lender will want some skin and the game from the borrower

Not sure you will find someone who will mentor you for free - more trouble than it's worth - speaking from experience as you have no skin in the game.  

Ohio solid surface

Here is how I think about structuring the partnership and I would like to hear your opinions:My equity partner will receive 40% of the profits for coming up with the 20-25% required for skin-in-the-game with hard money lenders.

I saw this ad on realtor, and on the surface seems like a decent deal.https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/...However, I'm from KC and don't know the area.

Had a borrower purchase a property recently that literally required them to have zero skin in the game, and she was a first timer using HML.Maybe if we had a relationship with her prior we'd fund it whole, but we didn't.She put it in 10% and we gave her our best rate.

Seems that the 2% rule is almost impossible to hit out here. Deals I've briefed are lucky to be around 0.5%. Is that worth pursuing?

By normal standards of skin in the game these should be a great deals for any lender, so I figured I would source this site to see whether anyone has any advice on how to find lenders in this low-income niche market.Regards,Ryan Hart

To each there own, there's more than one way to skin the real estate cat!
