Private Money.

Purchase price: $164,000 Cash invested: $10,000 Sale price: $260,000 I purchased a townhome in an up-and-coming neighborhood with a lot of public and private investment in the Atlanta area.

I've committed myself to being a full-time real estate investor, private money broker and real estate consultant!

I'm Christian Campos, a private money lender and real estate investor from Los Angeles, CA.Where are you located in California? 

Hi @James Heller I am fully renovating 2 of my units on a 4plex I have in Golden Hill...feel free to reach out and send me a private message if you need assistance and contacts....You can get cabinets and prefab quartz countertops pretty inexpensive and refacing is usually more expensive, I've found.  

Many are private owners just subsidizing their mortgage or they would not be able to afford the house without renting it out much of the season.

My workflow is much more involved with these types of tenants and includes a tour and I'm screening the tenant and the business I'm working with.

If you want to discuss more you can always send me a private message but so far I don't see any negatives with purchasing the multi-family.

I do potentially have access to private money if needed, and a 401(k).
