Learning more on financing
Hi all-
I’m just a few weeks into my real estate investing journey, and I’ve been trying to soak up as much as I can from the forums/podcasts/books, to prepare for my first deal sometime this quarter or the next. One area where I keep finding myself a little confused and out of my depth is the financing process, both in terms of initial loans and refinancing for BRRRRs. Does anyone have any suggested reading or other materials to help me get myself up to speed on all this? How did you go about familiarizing yourself with the financing side before your first deal? Any guidance or suggestions would be very much appreciated.
