Financing a flip
As I’m getting closer to leaving my 9-5 and focusing more on family, I’m focusing in on what I want to do to earn a living.
I've been doing BRRR and it's been great to watch my portfolio and net worth build up.
But to transition away From my W2s it seems like I should try a flip for income.
My question is about financing.
I'm thinking a certain SFH LTR I own "Tanguay St" will be the most accessible equity compared to multi units or trailers I think. Plus the rate lock is up in 2026 it.
This property is in Maine, but I will be looking to flip in Northern California, Chico / Oroville area because that’s where we’ll be moving to with my wife’s family and I’m familiar with the area.
So are the banks in NorCal that will lend on a fixer and include a construction loan? Should I be looking for a line of credit or a mortgage? The banks seem so different compared to back east.
