Should I Even Attempt?
I was looking through some apartment complexes for sale, and I was wondering if I should attempt to aply for financing? The property is like $50 mil.
I know there's no way I'd get that, but what if I applied for say 30mil 61% LTV, and then searched for a partner to get financing for the other 40%?
Would this work?

A $50 Million Dollar apartment complex on the East Coast? Wow. Will the owner carry a second?
I don't know, I've never even thought of applying for a loan this big...I almost laugh at myself for considering it.
You know what...I think I should try, at least then when the lender calls to laugh in my face...maybe I'll learn something.

Hmmmm, I'm thinking (yes I know it's NEVER going to happen).
$56,500,000 theres the price.
How could a newbie investor like myself invest in a property that costs that much? ...if you say "you can't" I won't argue, lol.
I'm thinking I know someone who was talking about they wanted to buy an apartment complex. Maybe I could do a 40/40 with a partner and have the owner carry 10% if that is even possible.
I don't see how me getting ahold of $25 million is possible anyways.
Well.. this just in the property is under contract already, I did write the agent back and asked him to ask the buyer if they'd be interested in a partner.
Brand New Apartment Complex ahhhh
One day....

Not to keep posting on my own post (although that is what is happening here, sorry)
But, I'm thinking from my other topic, getting creative commercially.
I know I can pretty much get a loan for a SFH anytime.
Say I were to find an apartment complex, and "Make an Offer" (another thing I never even considered for some reason I let the fact that it's commercial scare me into "the price is the price" and the seller agreed to a price below 90% Appraised Value, say the offer was 85% for what the place is worth.
Now, me being the new don't have any commercial properties, luckily can finance a SFH, newbie investor who wants to own his own apartment complex...enough rambling, if I were to find a deal like this how likely would it be that I'd be able to finance something like that? Would I more than likely need a partner?
Ok thats all I'm putting in this topic for now..I promise

When dealing with commercial property, sellers are must more willing to carry back 2nds and even sell on contract. More often than not I see that I have terms available to me. If you can find a partner to put in that much cash then I'm sure you can get this to work.
However you shouldn't jump out of a plane without a parachute! Make sure you know what you're doing. You are dealing with a potentially fatal deal if you make even one mistake costing you 1%
When you say fatal what do you mean exactly? It wouldn't physically jump up and kill him...........or would it? LOL
