But the loans can be 100% (purchase price and repair costs), as they loan based on the value of the deal, not necessarily the borrowers credit worthiness or skin in the game.

Keep copies of lease secure and use addendums to renew it every year if you get long-term tenantsBe friendly, have a thick skin and enjoy being a landlord. 

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

They don't have any skin in the game because they get paid either way.

my advice is you treat this as a business and start with hard money for the capital you have saved. buy below value, fix, and RF to continue and have good skin in the game.

Idk what I’ll need to use of it, but it’s amazing to know that tenants have enough skin in the game. 

Because you are invested into them and have skin in the game, you will get educated by the good and bad things they do.

Well, who has more "skin" in the game on your behalf:1) An agent that finds you a property, gets their commision and is doneor2) A PMC that has to manage your property every day until you sell or terminate them?

If they reject it, no skin off your back.  

Sure the double deposit helps the landlord a little bit but it still doesn't really mean the tenant has any skin in the game.
