I think many people benefit from the minutiae of understanding as they ascend the higher ranks of wealth.

Could you please check your contract and share with us some blurbs in the warranty and disclaimer sections of the report re the limitations of the inspections...As it pertains to your situation I cannot tell you how many crawl spaces I go into where others would never venture into (because the inspector was to large and the opening to small) or that he pulled "that is a confined space and I am not certified nor have the safety equipment to enter such a space" and how many roofs I ascended to where even the pigeons fear to nest...

For a lot of these folks they can fall off a cliff just as fast as they ascended to the mountain top.

Many clients will add a clause for a share of the profit, as well as a guaranteed interest rate.Disqualified persons include family ascendants and descendants ,spouse, parents, children, business partners, fiduciaries, etc—reference IRS publication 590 A&B as well as IRC 4975.Thank youCarl

They lend that out to borrowers on home loans, equity credit lines and credits cards (in order of ascending interest rates) for between 3% and 29.9% or more. 

The disqualified persons list includes spouses, lineal ascendants (parents, grandparents, etc), lineal descendants (children, grandchildren), and spouses of lineal descendants.You could take a participant loan from a Solo 401k and lend that money to a disqualified person without violating any rules.

Now, this means you will need to look for more off market deals and create the right relationships to find said deals however, buying in strong or ascending markets should be the goal.

Once upon a time 10% was standard here ... but with the "forever ascending" real estate prices most Canadian markets have witnessed over the past two decades, deposits as a percentage of price tag have dropped dramatically.I disagree with @Arlan Potter, 10% is not way too much.  

Without a doubt I'll be ready to ascend to 10+ units if I keep up at this rate.So all of you new guys out there who haven't purchased your first property yet.

The market is not ascending like that any more, and the flip deals are marginalized.
