Quote from @Rion Manita: Hello BiggerpocketsI'm working on some deals where buyers are trying to stack owner financing with a bank or private lender, what are some strategies to get these across the finish line and or some solid lenders that operate in these capacities that are flexible. thank youWord of warning - everything must be disclosed to all lenders.  

Financing MF with traditional financing will require 25-30% down and typically require experience or greater down as they view it as risk.

Are there specific creative financing methods that are more beginner-friendly?

Hey everyone,I’ve been looking into alternative financing models that are structured around profit-sharing instead of interest — similar to partnership or markup-based loans.Has anyone here tried this type of interest-free or profit-based financing for a property purchase or investment?

Keeping finances straight for a bunch of STRs is a real challenge.

Looking for a all around financial real estate program. Something to keep everything organized as far as incoming rents, rehab expenses for flips, and lending money! 

@Heidi Christensen I am guessing you are a buyer and wat to explain a creative financing offer to an agent.

One would assume you mean 2-4 units, which would qualify for conventional residential financing much like a single family home. (5+ unit properties require commercial financing)The second questions is Are you going to live in it?

.• Is it easier to finance as a Canadian using a DSCR loan, a foreign national loan, or personal income, and can projected STR income be used?

Quote from @Michael Santeusanio: Some investors line up funding first; others contract the deal and then secure financing.
