Hard money and private investing are both ways to finance flips, but they work a little differently.Hard money loans are typically from companies or private lenders that specialize in short-term, high-interest loans.

When we present a Subto for investors to buy, it has to have enough meat on the bone, all said and done, that the investor will still have equity and the property will cash flow.For instance, I have one I'm working right now, that has a high entry, because the seller wants some cash out to himself, but even with that, the buyer will wind up with $50,000 in equity.

You get so much wealth and start getting older you enjoy the business but focus on quality of life more and memories. 

Most seller's in a sub-to don't understand the risk they are taking and most lenders have concerns over the overall portfolio quality ratings which has an impact on their cost of funds.

Research high-traffic areas or underutilized lots near event venues, hospitals, or transit hubs.

@Polat Caglayan very ambiguosu question, but read the helpful info below to guide your next set of questions:)-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

While it requires some extra coordination, it keeps their returns clean and operational costs transparent.If the fee feels too high, consider loan servicing software with modular pricing.

Or we've also been exploring moving to a district with a better high school for the kids in a few years and turning the current place into a rental.

If the proposed loan is too risky because (1) chance of default is too high and or (2) cost of foreclosing too high or time it takes too long and we would otherwise decline the loan, we might offer to purchase the subject property for a price equal to the loan amount.  

@Mattin Hosh first, most cities in Metro Detroit have some type of rental property inspection every 2-3 years.It's not really a big deal 99% of the time - especially for owners who are NOT slumlords:)Also, a quick Google search will show that several states/cities are passing/considering similar legislation.One of the biggest mistakes we see newer investors making is NOT properly understanding Neighborhood/Property/Tenant Classes and naively assuming that any rental they buy will deliver Class A results.Read our copy & paste thoughts below and DM us if you'd like to dicuss more about the Detroit market:)-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?
