100% Hard Money FinancingI know, all over the Internet it says you can get 100% hard money loans for your deals.

Keep in mind private lenders are those that know and like you and trust you there are no private lenders on the internet ..

You can access your books on any computer or device with an internet connection.

I need to get the routers replaced (a bit difficult from my spot 2000 miles away) but when I do, I'm going to stick with the default settings, so I don't have to worry about those systems losing internet connection just because of a router reset.

Just the costs of setting up a room, bringing the plumbing, gas, electric (I believe commercial machines run on 250 volts, which likely isn't wired in yet), having someone on-call to fix them whenever they break, might require too much capital.But:I'd wager I'm not telling you anything you didn't already know!

While using tax benefits of the loss, yes, I would still save some money compared to renting / buying, but that seems like a dangerous wager to me given that the depreciation taxes will be recouped by the feds if I decide to sell and THAT could end up costing me way more than I ever actually made on the property.

I decided to start with flipping and about 2 months ago i got myself a mentor ( a real one, not an internet guru) and started diving into it. 2 months later I'm still sitting trying to piece together my first deal.
