Family members are often an excellent resource when it comes to financing an investment property. Many people really do not want to go to there family and ask them to give you money. However, you could take a different approach instead of asking them for a gift or a handout consider asking for a loan. Much like a bank, only these are your family members.

It is highly likely as a family member, that they will refuse the offer of interest and just want the initial sum paid back, but you should never assume and always make the offer.
