Hi Moises,

Congrats on selling your first home and making the move to Houston! It's great to hear that you're already thinking about diving into your first rehab and flip project. It sounds like you're on the right track with your research and considering financing options like hard money loans.

Hard money loans can definitely be a viable solution when traditional lending isn't an option, especially if you want to move quickly on a project. These loans typically offer more flexibility and faster approval processes, which can be helpful in the fix-and-flip world. The key things to keep in mind are interest rates, loan terms, and ensuring you have a solid plan for the rehab timeline and sale.

I sent you a connect request. I'd be happy to connect with you! Let me know if you want to know more about private money lending. 

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Best regards,
Carole

Hi Liliana,

Great to hear that you’ve found a potential flip! I totally understand the hesitation to dip into your non-retirement savings—that’s a common concern for many first-time flippers.

For my first flip, I leveraged private money funding. It allowed me to preserve my personal savings while still securing the capital I needed to get the project going. Private lenders typically offer more flexibility than traditional financing, which is great when you're just starting out. You can often secure a loan based on the property's value rather than your financials, making it easier to get approval quickly and move on deals like the one you found.

Using private money can help you fund the purchase and the rehab costs without tapping into your home equity or savings, which gives you more breathing room and allows you to focus on the project.

If you’re interested, I’d be happy to walk you through how private money lending works and how it could help with your current deal. Let me know if you’d like to chat!

Best,
Carole

Hi Saheed,

Welcome to the community! It's exciting to hear that you're getting started in the Memphis fix and flip market. There’s definitely a lot of opportunity there, and I'm sure you'll find it both rewarding and challenging.

A key part of successful fix and flip projects is securing the right funding. Have you considered private money lending? Many investors use private lenders to finance their projects. It can be a great alternative to traditional bank loans, offering flexibility in terms of both loan structure and timelines. If you're interested, I can share some information to you. 

I'd also be happy to collaborate or share insights where I can. Feel free to reach out if you'd like to discuss potential opportunities or ideas.

Looking forward to connecting!

Best,
Carole

Hi Melissa, 
It's great to hear you're diving into real estate investing! I've actually been working with private money lending for a while now, and I've seen a lot of variations in terms and conditions. The 70% LTV and 3% origination cost you mentioned are typical, but they can definitely vary depending on the lender and the specific deal.

Regarding the LLC or Trust, you're right, it's a good idea to explore those options for asset protection and potential tax benefits. I've helped several investors structure their deals in a way that works for them, and I'd be happy to chat about how it could apply to your situation.

I sent you a connect request. Happy to collaborate with you!
