Single families can be easier to liquidate and give you the ability to cash out one by one as opposed to multi-family.

The problem with why investors and agents clash sometimes is that agents know investors want a good deal but they may not understand the metrics you're using to determine what a good deal is and also they want to protect their reputation by not submitting a bunch of impractical offers for a given listing to a listing agent that they may want to work with in the future.A fully renovated home in great owner occupancy condition generally cannot be be low balled in most cases unless the seller had dire need to sell within a specific period of time but that may be due to the liquidity needs of the seller.

If they can get a much higher return then the 9% and the investment is smaller then they might take a gamble with the money but it doesn't affect their overall liquidity as a small percentage of their worth.If you want premium lending rates you might have to approach friends and family.How much money are you trying to get per investor??
