Personally, I can't imagine being so thin-skinned that someone changing or taking down one of my posts would lead me to throw a fit or leave in a huff, but that's just me.

An unsophisticated lender might send all the construction funds to you.Other than for a refinance, or from an unsophisticated lender, you, or more typically your contractor, will receive funds in draws as you complete your project.Most, but not all, first-position lenders will only lend a percentage of your purchase price and expect you to wire in some amount of cash as your “skin in the game.”

I would be able to put skin in the game however would not be able to fund the entire project.

I label you a CON.Because in my experience only CON's go to the extents and actions you have shown here to OBFUSCATE, distort, spin and use insults of things like skin color or ageism as a defense. 

I'm not at all familiar with any of those markets so I have no skin in the game here but I'm curious what strategies or applied logic you used to help narrow it down to those areas.

I have been in NNN 21 years and never have seen a seller carry for 25% and then the lender providing the other 75% as first position with a loan.You would have no skin in the game. 

They usually put (in my opinion) insufficient skin in the game (which financially misaligns the sponsor from the investor). 

With fix & flips, unless you have a financial partner (or family member, etc) you potentially could have no skin in the game besides sweat equity, but if you are working with any lenders and going at it alone, you will need something up front. 

Most lenders are going to want to see that you have some skin in the game seeing how new you are.

Down Payment (Non-Refundable):Always protect yourself with meaningful skin in the game.
