Need advice on a unit I own!
Need help!
I currently own a condo close to the westchase area (Richmond ave) I still owe on the property, but my plan was to fix it up a little and rent it out. The issue that I am running into is funding the repairs. I do not need too put much into it to get it where i want($3000-$5000) do hard lenders fund on repairs or is it not worth it for them to lend such a little amount? Has anyone ever been in a similar situation?Most Popular Reply

Hard money is typically for purchases, not property you already own. For that small of an amount, your best bet is to use a line of credit if you have it, or whatever credit you have as long as you pay it back quickly with the cashflow after getting rented.
