My goal is to scale beyond single-family rentals and small multifamily units, and I'm eager to learn how investors break into the larger apartment complex deals—especially using other people’s money or with a low initial investment.I'm open to syndications, joint ventures (JVs), and partnership structures that allow for a lower capital outlay while maximizing potential upside.

Did you use any creative financing tools like: seller financing, rent-to-own, HELOCs, subject-to deals (taking over the seller’s mortgage), Joint ventures or partnerships, or even a BRRRR strategy?

Hi BiggerPockets community,Curious what methods you are all using to acquire investment properties without a ton of capital upfront.There are so many strategies out there: partnering with private lenders, joint ventures, creative financing, assignments, subject-to, seller financing, lease options, and more.

Your personal network is usually the best place to find investors, especially when you are starting a new venture.

That is best done by doing a Joint Venture on the first couple of properties.

This will let more knowledgeable Americans, even if they aren’t wealthy, participate in private market investments such as pre-IPO, venture capital, hedge funds, or private real estate. that will be a cluster F  in a big way unleash those that cant afford to lose money on the most risky investments and the slickest talking promotors what could possibly go wrong

Local builders and national homebuilders sometimes joint-venture on land acquisitions too, especially if the path to 300–500 homes is realistic.If financing isn’t an option and the seller wants a fast close, you’ll need a partner with both capital and development capacity, not just private lenders.

Wishing you all the best as you embark on this exciting venture!

There are many other considerations it is a worth while venture if you are looking for more than cash flow.

I say focus on this because the challenge with Real Estate is that there are so many strategies & you can get off on a tangent and find you never close a deal because you decide to venture off on to something else right after you have completed training on one strategy.
