It requires an investment of time, a willingness to learn, it may mean crawling out of your shell, it can mean building a thick skin and will mean making some mistakes along the way.

I believe it was already mentioned but the increased lending restrictions by banks really weed out the bad investors because they are requiring much more skin in the game.

And, the lender would likely want to know why the A ins. co. is not paying the full loss leading to your deal.We recently had a comment about the DOS clause not being at all common in Texas, where you can't do a CFD, consult with an attorney and see how insurance is addressed locally in an installment transaction.Use the Sub-2 when it is appopriate, it's not always the best way to skin the cat.

  @Aaron Mazzrillo what private lender will lend on such terms and won't give the, "you have to have skin in the game."

They have more skin in the game then you do.Make sure you get clear title.

Hi @Erik Kubec.The passive-income LLC with a solo401k cat was skinned already here.

When they have some skin in the game, they’re more likely to have a vested interest in their home AND the park, which is the type of tenant you want.

And as Jerry mentioned, some skin in the game, for both parties?

If your contractor does a bad job and you pulled the permit, no skin off his back if he walks away, other than you taking him to court, if you can find him.
