The only time I have seen it is balance sheet lenders who cross collateralize with other assets  - but at end of day theLTV is still down around 75% or lower.

Normal people can achieve financial freedom through these strategies but just like with getting into shape, sometimes they just need a personal trainer to guide them and hold them accountable.I’m a personal finance geek at heart and love the investing/net-worth side of real estate.

It’s built for independent landlords and smaller portfolios, but it scales well if you add more units over time.A few features that stand out for portfolio management:Dashboard view – Track rent collection, leases, expenses, and cash flow across all your properties at once.Tenant tools – Screening, leases, and rent payments all in one place.Banking integration – You can connect your existing accounts or use Baselane’s banking to keep rental income and expenses organized (helps a lot with bookkeeping and reporting).Mobile-friendly – Even though there’s no dedicated app, the platform is cloud-based and works smoothly on your phone browser, so you can manage things on the go.It’s a nice balance between property management software and financial tracking, so you always have the full picture of your portfolio. 

I am grateful for RTR's business model that empowers investors to "grow as you take action", but achieve an excellent outcome because of the support and excellent processes in place and a committed team.
