Lake Keowee has always been expensive, but I just saw a log cabin sale for less than $500k and it peaked my interest.

@Jesse GrimUsing a hard money lender (HML) could potentially speed up the process of accessing funds for your fix and flip projects, but it's essential to weigh the pros and cons carefully.

For me, it used to be better and cheaper -- I was willing to compromise on speed. 

Purchase price: $460,000 Single family, purchased near peak market 2022 What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

Getting new attorneys up to speed takes time and not all new hires work out. 

Off the top of my head, I believe I'm paying them around 18% total commission (they charge 10% on all taxes, fees, cleaning etc).My question is - Should I relist my property now during dead season or wait until peak season?

Thank you, thank you.)Some tidbits from the article:-- People turning 33 and 34 make up the peak of American population-- There appears to be another similar peak coming 10 years later.-- The number of 30-to-34 year-olds is about 700,000 higher than those ages 35 to 39.-- "The demand for entry-level single-family homes should remain high for the rest of the decade,” economists at Fannie Mae noted in a recent analysis.-- This demand collides with the under-building of new homes that happened after the 2007-2008 recession.So ... unfortunately, if you're sitting on the sidelines waiting for prices to come down, you're gonna have to wait awhile. 

It is that powerful of strategy that speeds up your time towards financial independence much faster than any other strategy!

Cash if speed/condition/asset type get you a better discount.Mortgage if vanilla and doesn't benefit your acquisition price.  

There could also be other factors at play too such as speed/ease of communication and promptness of filing.
