Went on to purchase additional rentals so tenants can pay down the loan and I build equity How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

I plan to utilize some cash, margin loan, 401k loan, and a HELOC as a down payment.My first house hack (now an out of state investment) has a Zestimate of $530K, and I have $266K left on the loan.

Multifamily properties provide higher rental income and lower vacancy risk, but they require higher upfront costs and more management.

I have been an investor since 2009 and work as a loan originator since 2018 all in Dallas.

You may want to make an introduction between your CPA to those 2 colleagues.The CPA can go over their services and pricing to your colleagues.I partner with many people on real estate deals - It never gets to a discussion on whether they do their own tax return or hire a professional.If a partner mentions he will provide capital - does he provide the capital on a timely manner.If a partner mentions he will find deals - does he find many deals and provide an analysisIf a partner mentions he will manage a property - does he manage the property well(find tenants, collect rent, communicate with contractors, etc)

If so I'd be happy to provide some insight on financing in the U.S.

They are a legit lender, we have bought loans from them.

While I don’t know their program or them, I’ve yet to see a mentorship program that cuts the time necessary to obtain the knowledge required; that has a monopoly on any tactic, strategy or technique that’s not common knowledge; and or that provides any ongoing “help” that’s anything but “basic”.If you’re not well versed in principles, finance, and law, either read books on these, attend college classes, or take a course(s) leading to real estate broker (salesman) licensure.  

Or if its not that much you could get some other type of loan and use a 2nd lien on the property as collateral.

I have lived in Hawaii for many years but now that I’m a traveling healthcare provider, I am off island more often than not.When I’m not on contract I would love to have a place to return to and when I’m away I would love to rent it out for some additional income.
