Matthew Lee Multi-investor Loans Inquiry

In this situation, I believe each of us would be signed onto the loan as the guarantor for the FULL loan amount.i.e.)If each person owns 1/6 (17%) of a home and we take out a $1M mortgage, instead of inheriting 1/6 of $1M, each person would have the FULL $1M as a liability on their creditAs I understand it, this would significantly increase our debt-to-income ratio = more difficult to get future loans.Is there a way to navigate this?

Patrick Q. Hacks For Paying Debt Off Cheaper/Faster
8 December 2021 | 4 replies
Hello all,Reaching out to see if anybody has any hacks for getting credit card debt paid down/off, sooner/cheaper.The debt was planned/strategic to get me into my first houshack (and has worked).I have a plan to pay it off fairly expeditiously.The current plan is to use the debt avalanche method.I am thinking that some sort of personal loan could help reduce the interest rate on the debt and provided there are no prepayment penalties on it it will allow me to get the debt paid off quicker with less interest costs.Does anybody have any suggestions as to how one would go about getting the best rate and terms for a personal loan such as the one I mentioned above?
