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

:)  Plenty of people make money in C and D class, but it's a specialized niche that requires thick skin. 

If you want to be taken seriously though usually you have to put more skin in the game than that.

Yes, I only invest in deals where the syndicator has skin in the game.  

Not to mention the vast majority of persons I have seen trying to buy on sub2 terms, try to do so with no or near to no skin in the game.

Are they putting up all of the capital, or are you putting some skin in the game?

I'm sure there are many ways to skin this cat, but I don't think you need to kill yourself.

People that have no money, no experience, and want to suck away valuable time is a non-starter.You have to give something of value such as performing free tasks, going to work for an investment company from the ground up, pay for training,etc.People that are wanting freebies and have no skin in the game tend to do nothing when a bunch of work is involved.

Hard Money is going to want you to have some skin in the game, so you'll have a hard time finding someone who is going to give you 100% financing for the purchase.

I agree with Matt...find an agent who has skin in the game, property management experience, or at least has a solid history of repeat client investors.
