Getting First Rental Property? Financing it? Alone or Group?
I would like to get my first rental property. I'm not rich. The income will probably be 150 to me after paying rent and property managers. I want something new and I have tout 20% down. What is the best way to get financed besides a bank? Would anyone suggest doing it alone or in a group? I honestly do not want to deal with a mortgage but know I will have to if I do it alone since in my world, it is extremely hard to come up with 130,000 cash. Any suggestions?

Tony...find another lender. Talk to small, local banks & credit unions. Big banks & high-volume originators are notorious for acting like their policies are the same as regulations that apply to all lenders. Not true. Just find someone who will work with you.
