deep clean, moisture barrier in crawl space, maintenance to HVAC What was the outcome?

GP's typically have to put skin on the game.

Turns out, the previous owner did take many steps to mitigate the moisture damage and the home was very dry and mold free when we acquired it.

From the top of my head - mildew, moisture buildup, dust, structural cracks...

It is nicer to use than a regular chlorine hot tub especially on your skin but I don't know if the maintenance is any better or worse, personally.

The moisture issue and structural issue need to be addressed and you can do so before the insurance adjuster comes out.

So I require skin in the game (average is 5% to 15%) to offset this.

Better than underground homes which have issues with moisture etc.

Again, other might feel differently here.b) Skin in the game: as a conservative investor, I understand that the dirty secret of industries that the waterfall compensation is in the line with me and incentivizes sponsors to take more risk.

They also want a priority lien on the property.It sounds like you are looking for someone to fund your down payment, I would be looking for an equity partner over debt as nobody likes to lend money in insecure positions, especially when a borrower lacks skin in the game.How much are you planning to come in with yourself?
