sorry to hear your hard money fell through, but glad you pulled it off! what do you think the ARV is on this? numbers seem pretty good depending on what it might be worth fully rehabbed.

@Daniel Qin hey i hear your struggle on trying to come up with another down payment for another property. that is not easy! i have found some hard money lender will offer a supplementary loan to cover down payment and closing costs which is a huge help.

@Zach Lemaster just a thought, i know some hard money lenders will bridge the down payment gap for you too. meaning, in addition to funding the loan, for example, 80% LTV plus 100% of rehab, they will do a supplementary loan to help cover the down payment. so you have two loans, but if the deal is good, it gets you into the deal with little out of pocket and low barriers!

Quote from @Semaj Dorsette:

Hello good afternoon to all hope all is well…..I guess I just need to vent so bare with me plz lol Sooo after countless YouTube videos, reading books and talking about real estate with anyone that would listen I started the process of getting a Heloc about 3 weeks ago and decided to invest in the Michigan area. Original amount I was seeking was $100K and due to many factors I could only get $45K, got in contact with lender and seems $80K is what I’d qualify for. So now I went from looking to a getting a small multi family to getting at best a single family home. Should just use this as a opportunity to get into a real estate market and get some experience or wait until I can get a larger property before making such a big move as this would be an out of state investment!

@Semaj Dorsette 

keep the heloc on hand but you do not have to use it. look into hard money. you may be able to use the HELOC for the down payment and get yourself approved for a higher purchase price. happy to help.

Quote from @Denis Churchill:

Good Day BP, A few years ago I was thinking I was ready to dive in to REI. I didn't have much $ so 2 turnkey houses were looking like that was the road to get started on. I am not an impulse anything. I realized these 2 turnkey properties would take most if not all of my funds and would generate about $400 / month cash flow with no hiccups. Even with my primary residence there is always a hiccup. I listen to my fair share of podcasts and stumbled upon one that was interviewing someone with a similar story to mine. Age, amount of cash, desire, etc. Except he was a step ahead of me. He stated that he took his funds and built a business that in turn bought his properties. On one side of the coin it took him a bit longer than he wanted but he was able to acquire more than he could have otherwise. I realize rei is for the most part a 'long game'. I took his story and applied it to my own situation. With a brother of mine, with the same goals, we started a logistics company moving freight all around the United States for the last few years. We have since liquidated company assets and have purchased 3 lots of land in an increasingly desired area just outside of a state park. We also are in the middle of a sfr rehab to increase the bottom line in the bank account. We are planning to sell off the 3 lots, which were bought at the right time, and with cash accumulated build a small community of sfr's in semi rural area. Renter source will be encroachment of population from surrounding cities, industrial park with new build of distribution center and well known manufacturing plant that is being relocated to that location. There are no available Homes for rent or sale in nearby areas. OK. I need advice on avenues to build 2 bedroom 2 bath Homes using our cash and renting as they are built. Somewhere on that road we will run out of $. Looking to market community for sale when completed as multi family investment property. Thanks in advance.

wow love that you took the initiative and started your own business like that. very impressive and great ideas with the land. have you considered hard money? you can do ground up construction and although you will need money for down payment etc, you will def stretch your dollars a lot further. happy to provide more thoughts.

Quote from @Elliott Leste:

Hi, I am a spec home builder that wants to get into duplex rentals. I currently own a piece land right outside of the city limits where I can build many duplex on it.  My problem is I will be still taking a loan for another spec home at the same time I will be build a duplex on this property. I will have about 200k cash to build this duplex which I believe I can get it build no problem, 2/1 each side, under 2000sqft.  Do you think is better to use cash to build one duplex then cash out at my local bank or use hard money to build multiple duplexes then refinance it at my local bank? Let me know what do you think. Thanks 

@Elliott Leste build multiple. that is 100% the answer. the HML i use does ground up construction. def do not limit yourself by just doing one at a time. happy to share contact or help quote the project.

@Katrina Morato

thanks for your service!

im a huge believer in using leverage. get a hard money loan and buy another property that you can add value to. allow the hard money loan to pay for your rehab, and then do a cash out refi and hold the property and then do it all over again.

@Tasha Barnes
