If you have a partner to come up with half and the seller is willing to carry a note then you’re almost there. How about doing an equity line of credit on your houses? If your credit is good there are lenders that will do 90/10 commercial loans at low rates. Make sure you do due diligence before jumping in to this and cover all your bases. Good luck

Great opportunity available in my area. There are seven 4 plex units that have just been listed for $1.3 million. Wow, I have never worked with this amount before, but the property will cash flow about $4,000/month. I have access to a partner who can come up with half of the down payment. The seller will carry a portion of the down. How in all hell mighty do I get a loan for the remaining balance? I am self-employeed and do not show much for income, but have 4 other properties with about $180,000 of equity in them. Who do I turn to to make this deal happen. Who will loan this amount of money to someone who doesn’t show income? I know that anything is possible! I am 27 years old and want to make real estate investing my life. I love it! Any information would be great. Thanks for all of your help.
