Newbie trying to get started in New Orleans
so today 06/3/14 I fished j Scott's book on flipping houses and I must say it is a great read. He really breaks everything swim as much as possible. If you haven't read it yet I suggest you do, especially if your new like me. Any who, back to the matter at hand. After finishing the book I am ready to get started in finding that awesome deal. I want to flip and buy and hold. My thing is FUNDING. I am currently thinking about doing the hard money loan being I feel that's my only option right now. Could any of you all help with this. And people or company's you know of that i an get A HML FROM? And also tell me as much as possible about them. I still do have a lot to learn bit I want to START! Can't keep worrying about the what ifs. Thanks for reading this long post :)
