I found a good deal but do not have enough for downpayment!
I found a good 3plex deal in a A-/B+ area of Cincinnati, OH. I don't want to wholesale or flip the 3plex deal that I found on the MLS. I don't have enough cash for downpayment. It's not a rehab gut project but the rooms need minor repairs. My final goal is to turn the property into 3 different airbnbs starting in 2021. What are my options?
1. Hard money loan at high interest rate so that I can offer al 100% cash offer to seller?
2. Private money? I've never done this before.
3. Other ideas?

You do not want to use hard money for a long-term property. Hard money is for short term flips only. Your best bet is to find a private lender or ask for owner financing for the entire project or just the down payment.
