well you have your own answer there are no lenders for entitlements  there are JV partners like me for entitlements but its not at traditional lending rates of course as its all risk capital.WI funded 3 entitlement deals in 2024 in Loudan  county VA to the tune of 7 figures in cash. since my client does not own it its unsecured ..

My business partner and I bought into it  quickly saw its limitations then just as quickly canceled our service  within two weeks.

I have a lot of ideas on how to buy real estate with no money (Novation, Subject To, owner financed), to partner with someone who has money, and/or to buy for yourself with money. 

If you’re remote, acquisitions might be a good fit since you can focus on finding deals and leave dispositions to local partners.

Likely not allowed in the lease and if the landlord were to allow it they will partner with you and take a good chunk of the profits.

Options like our partner Baeslane’s free online rent collection platforms, payment apps, and ACH transfers are convenient for both parties, but traditional methods like checks or cash are still widely used.I’d love to hear about your experiences:What rent collection method do you prefer and why?

I think there’s some sort of option of to do a little refi on both house 1 and 2 and get the money needed to wipe out the line of credit(allowing for bigger flip opportunities, especially if I partner up with someone) and also renovating that garage space with the private investor as long as it is under 1000/month.

and i speak from experience on this end I bought over 250 C Ds coming out of the GFC in the mid west and deep south.. it was as you describe 2 steps forward one backward.. after two years and coming to same place you are today I sold out to my partners and let them take it.

Or an experienced flipper/rehabber.What you don't want to do is bring in partners who are just like you.
