Little Rock, Arkansas, is an excellent market for real estate investment.

How did you find the deal?

I agree, it could be possible but I have yet to see a deal that really works when the borrower is borrowing 100% financing on a deal as the lender is going to have much higher rates and default rates.

There are always private money lenders there and people who will partner up on a deal.

It's no different with the inexperienced investor who doesn't know what a good deal is.

✅ No risk, no cash out of pocket✅ You work with, cooperate with, the homeowner instead of negotiating against them✅ No tenants and toilets✅ No maintenance or repairs✅ Short-term deals with sizeable assignment fees✅ Those fees can fund long-term strategies like buy-and-hold or fix-and-flipIf you’re an aspiring investor looking for a low-cash entry point into real estate, Cooperative Assignments are an effective strategy.  

Assuming you're getting into deals that can perform above what the market will deliver (the only reason you would do this), there is still going to be a lot of work involved.

I want to start building our portfolio and would love some experienced help with direction.Over the past ten years, it seems like I've had numerous deals/ideas that just didn't come to fruition and I'm just feeling a bit defeated. 

Let’s be real: Not every deal is going to close. 

The eleventh hour deal just fell through after we jumped through hoops getting them every piece of paper they needed to close this deal by tonight.
