Hi! Looking to buy my first investment property (ies) this year in Pensacola.

Who do you recommend as a hard money lender? TIA

Hi Sophie, you might be able to meet some private lenders at the meetups, just keep asking around. I use https://www.w2capcapital.com/a... for hard money. Jay Helms is one of the owners and lives in Gulf Breeze. If you have your documents in order, they can fund deals with lightning speed and minimal hassle. Let them know I sent you.

Thank you! I appreciate it.

@Sophie Grizzle Lots of good advice on this thread! I hoped that helped. Do you have any more questions?

This was great! Not at the moment. Now just have to search for the property.

Thank you so much!

Quote from @Jeff Schemmel:

@Sophie Grizzle glad to hear this. Do you qualify for any low-down conventional options? Here in Saint Paul, I often recommend clients take advantage of a 5% down conventional option that's only available to first time buyers so they can keep that FHA in their back pocket for deal #2. Then you have two low-down options available instead of going FHA, then immediately to 15+% down payment on deal 2.

I found that who you partner with in lending is so critical. they can seriously make or break your deal, and I would make sure you are working with someone that is also an investor, who knows the local multi-family market, and can give you some real advice on lending options and even creative solutions to get competitive in your local market.

I looked for value-add because I wanted to house hack, force equity, improve revenue, and capture both equity and cash flow as soon as I could. This is the way if you can hack it and you're willing to get your hands dirty. take good notes on capital expenditures when you're touring a property you're serious about and practice your deal analysis daily to train your mind to spot a deal.

Good luck!

Thanks, Jeff! Great advice. Definitely plan to find a property that I can add some value to myself.
