Hard Money to Purchase Rental Property!
I am wanting some advise/suggestions on what to use or how to purchase a property that is going to be used for rental purposes. I have recently purchased my own home at $80,000 and used an FHA loan, so I'm tied up in a mortgage payment at $625/mo. I have heard of some people using hard money to purchase a property and all that, but I don't know all of the details. I have little money to put down as a down payment as of right now.
Any suggestions/advice would be great!

There are hard money lenders that offer refinance. You just have to evaluate if the extra money in interest is worth it. In my numbers, because my HML offers 90% LTC it is worth it, because I can buy many more deals. So the 6-12 months of higher interest will pay for itself in more deals. In addition you can add that cost into your numbers calculation and make the deal pay for it.
