I posted the event in the events section and it is labeled "Nashville New&Experienced Investor Meetup".  

Alpha Funding Solutions was fantastic to work with.

I would say that if you know you can't get a conventional loan on it then looking at the hard money is a solution. 

The first 2 sections are the problems with buying cash (which you seem to already know) so if you want to skip to the 3rd section that is the solution step. 

If you decide to keep it as a rental I may be worth looking into a little more creative solution.  

Here's my question, we're looking for equity and or debt ideas and solutions - ie bridge loan products, loan solutions etc: Mobile Home Park Deal - Please chime in on ideas you might have for financing this deal.1st lien loan: $800K, needs to allow partial release's so we can sell off portions of the propertyPreferred Investor raise/equity : $375k - can this raise be a hard money or bridge loan instead?

I took on the role of communicating with the tenants, which I was glad to because I could put the principles from Chris Voss' book "Never Split the Difference: Negotiating As If Your Life Depended on It" into use (i.e. mirroring, labeling, tactical empathy).

Look for solutions, not just what the problems are.

Guy, an interesting read, but I totally disagree that the solution is more government regulation or  oversight of rental properties - unless they are part of section 8 and are therefore offering a service in exchange for income.IMO, the answer to your question of "When would you know....." is more based on personal integrity and ethics than a hard or fast "model". 

Slab doors are the best solution, which have a better chance of not warping and the solid-core slab doors are even better.
