Wow.... thank you for sharing you situation. 

@ Brian Holt thank you so much for the advice. 

Hey BP family, 

Ok I need your help I have decided that I want to do my first flip deal with in the next three months. I live in South  Florida currently. I I have 10k-15k to put in the deal along with the hussle. I am planning to use hard money to cover most if not all of the project. I would like to find a single family home with 3 bed 1 or 2 bath or 2 bed with enough square footage to add a room. I would not mind a partner since it is my first deal. The question I have is should reach out to some hard money lenders and get pre-qualified and then get the deal or find the deal first and then worry about the financing thoughts ? 

@Lan Raby thank you for your service ! I am in south Florida but love visiting the Jacksonville and St Augustine area more laid back. 

@Joe Splitrock love that explanation positive cash flow but taxes loss at the end of the year. 

Wow.. so glad for everyone’s response sorry I could not respond to all. But so thankful I can start a great discussion !!!!! 

@Menachem Bloom Glad to Here fellow BP looking into deals. So I am new to investing. These our my thoughts. There is a lot of more information needed example all operating cost example insurance,utilities,vacancy, repairs to name a few. Did the owner provide rent roll and expense report ? What is your financing strategy ? 25% down,BRRRR, owner financing just to name a few. So there is more information needed to give an educated opinion. Let me if there is anything I can do to help remember I am a new investor too lol.

@Lan Raby love “the number are the numbers. There is no place for emotions or Pride”I totally agree when you present hard facts on why my offer is what it is. Thank you I will use that in the future.What part of Florida do you invest in Lan ?
