How to Fix and Flip with no cash?

Posted

Hi, 

I have opportunities to fix and flip on Long Island, NY but unfortunately do not have the cash for it. I am new to the business and do not have any experience in flipping properties. How do you recommend I get started? Are there any hard money lenders that will loan with no experience? If so, where?

So, Long Island is a baller's market.  Big deals.  Big down payments.  Big holding Costs.  Big Closing costs.  In short, this market has a huge barrier of entry and it is capital or very strong borrowing power and usually both.

There are lenders who will lend to a no exp investor, but not some 500k Long Island property that needs 200k in work and will resell for 1.2 Million.  That for sure WILL NOT be your deal one with a lender.  Would you lend a million dollars to someone who had no clue of the ups and downs and the bumps in the road of flipping houses.

This is why I build out networks in the midwest for those looking to break in because those 90k houses with the 40k rehab, those houses are the deal 1 deals a lender would like to see.  But in the end money trumps all.  If you can show me a bank statement with a million dollars in it, a lender will tend to not assess the loan as being as risky.
