This is far cheaper for our Owner than going to court and fighting to get them out, especially with local laws.By just sending out some multipage document for a digital signature, and providing access for showings via lockbox or someone with no skin in the game, the plain fact is NO ONE is reading the documents, much less getting any idea what is/is not important to you or how various issues would be addressed.

Thank you,Ron Generally you may still find financing for 100% of cost from hard money lenders, but tread very carefully because anyone offering that is going to be shaky or you will be faced with extreme fees and interest and risk - much much better to have some "skin in the game" and less risk especially when starting out.The main point of BRRRR is not really to use "other people's money" rather its to save the down payment and then recycle that cash as you repeat - i.e. you can cash-out 100% of your costs on the refinance purchase and then have the same money to do it again, but having a "free" rental property after the BRRRRR process

@Dylan ThomasBanks care because of the investor has no money in the deal then they are more inclined to walk away (see residential 80-20 loans 2006-2008)While yes banks “may get paid” or get property back, banks are not in the business to own property and they actually suck really bad at it and due to fractional lending it can cause stress on their balance sheet as they have to mark to market the loan vs hold to maturity.Banks want skin in the game.

Applicants need to put some skin in the game and respect your time, because after all you're investing your time, gas, etc to show the property and screen tenants.Note: I have RentRedi, but their system was annoying to list so I used Zillow's app.
