Consider funding from your sphere of influence
Working with friends and family can have a ton of upsides. What is so great about this strategy is that it requires no startup capital to begin with. If loans are not available or do not match your investment needs, then this option seems to be most manageable.
Get answers to tough questions
Interviewing lenders prior to making offers makes it easier to obtain a loan. Be prepared to lose diligence money for inspection-tests-appraisals, to determine if it’s a good investment. These are quite costly but if a property is not what is represented it saves you money in the long run, and you can rescind the offer. Take partners as a path to your wealth because some deals may be high dollar and this spreads your risk.
