Best Financing & OPM Options For New Investor With Low Cash?
Hey everyone!
I'm looking to get in the real estate industry; specifically looking to do fix and flips.
I was wondering if any experienced RE veterans could suggest financing options based off the situation I'm in:
**I'm 22 years old, have a 690 credit score, have $5,000 saved up in cash - liquid, the average market value of a house in my local area is $385,000 - $400,000 just based off comps**
Considering I'm young, have a decent credit score with little liquid funds available in an expensive market (can't do 20% down), I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions and approaches I should take for financing/funding homes specifically for fix and flips.
What's the best financing routes I should take? Best methods of using OPMS with more pros than cons (low-interest rates, etc)?
I was thinking about using my personal or business credit cards to fund everything but I would like to hear you guy's thoughts.
Let me know your thoughts! - Thanks!
