It's easy to be in debt when you're not making money from it...
I recently quit my job because I couldn't focus on real estate and it was stressing me out too much. I have been persistent on looking for deals and making contacts for my next sale. The good news, I found a great deal with a possible ROI of 20-50k. The bad news is, my only source of funds is my step-dad ( retired investor ) who is scared of our current situation in DC and doesn't know what's going to happen to the market. Now be advised, I have never thought of using him as a source of funds until someone made me realize he is the key to obtaining my first flip. Now I come to you, BiggerPockets for answers and guidance as to what I can possibly do now.
