The small amount of "skin in the game" required by the borrower can usually be made from multiple sources (2nd position gap lenders/private lenders, seller carry back, cross collateral, personal capital, etc).

Hi everyone I'm new to the real-estate game.

Hit me up and let's get in this real estate game!

I'm curious real estate agents, what is it that you look for in a mortgage lender that you exchange business with? What are the biggest differences in the lenders you continue to do business with & the lenders you...

@Bryan Hancock  I have done a few PPM's over the years and boy they are a ton of work if your just doing little ones IE 1 mil and under and just try to get a CPA to give you a full audit it can be like pulling teeth to get that done.Just seems like a ton of work to me.. but then again I am an old dog.. so everything internet related and tech related seems hard...

Get their opinion of what that property is worth.Then possibly check the internet, Realtor, Zillow.com.

However, I will put some skin in the game.

I'm far from a professional, but I've played the game you're referring to a couple times.

If you can't afford a months downtime, this isn't the game for you.

I'm new to the real estate flipping game.
