Also, lenders want you to "have skin in the game" so downpayment, renovation money is very important.

Do you have skin in the game funds?

Contrary to the argument in the report above, I don´t believe for a minute that a high percentage of owner occupiers means an economy is healthy and history has shown that there is little to gain (and a lot to lose) by making it too easy for people to buy their own home.

I'd definitely get your own site going with a solid SEO campaign but not until you've made your money back and have a more healthy budget. 

Sorry but a good chunk of the 10K will be eaten by losing costs etc.You can get loans, hard money or otherwise but you need skin in the game as well as cash to rehab.

There are many ways to "skin the cat" HOWEVER the numbers need to make sense and you do need to be disciplined here.Best of luck!

They are coming to me with ZERO skin in the game and wanting the acquisition and rehab costs.  

A lot of HML's won't accept them and lend to you because they will have to take 2nd position and you, as the borrower, wouldn't have any skin in the game.  

@Josh Dubin - There are many ways to skin the cat.  

When it comes to getting leads, I will be networking at local REIA groups and will offer referral/finder's fees for any properties to ensure that everyone who has skin in the game gets paid in the end.Hope that helps!
