No Money Down or OPM for Purchasing Multi-family

Does anyone have strategy recommendations for purchasing multi-family properties with zero-low downpayments? I have purchased one duplex using my own money and am looking to scale but wanting to leverage OPM or low or zero downpayment funding options.

Most of the savvy investors we're working with, even through we'll lend more that this, are coming in at 30% to 35% down. When you look at cash flow modeling, borrowing much more than that causes it to be tough to get a positive cash flow. We won't lend without some skin in the game. Over three decades, I've not seen a ton of situations where no money down/100% leverage has worked well.
