Need Funding Rehab Advice
Hi there,
I'm a newbie seeking to score my first deal in 2018. I live in PG County Maryland. Right now, my goal is to save $12k more for a down payment on a SFH that I will not live in. I plan to buy in a blue-collar neighborhood with a conventional loan expecting to put at least 20% down. My question is if I only save up for the down payment - how can I fund the rehab costs? Is it common for investors to borrow that money from the bank too? What is some advice for how to cover the rehab costs?
