I am going to continue to read real estate and investing books, read forums on Bigger Pockets, and listen to the podcasts for the rest of this year into 2019 to arm myself with knowledge to make the process easier come time to take action. 

In a nutshell, the idea was to make things a lot more digital and to move away from a paper process where it is possible. 

I think hard money rates in the double digits is absurd for experienced investors.I just closed on a house while only putting 5% down; the HML funded 95% of the purchase price and 100% of the rehab (in reimbursement draws). 

Hi,Initially i worked with an Agent and she showed me 5 properties, During Making an offer on a House she slipped a document to sign Digitally in her Ipad. 

If you can fix up your home and make it nice as the others without spending an arm and leg, the spread is equity.

I lived near Austin TX for a year so we had triple digit summers and I was ok with it.

I'm still arming myself with as much knowledge as I can to make sure I start off the right way.

I was either channeling my inner @Steve Vaughan and taking a nap or driving through Kansas and MO with triple digits on the car thermometer -- the nap sounds better.

Wanted to see if anyone who either is or knows of an attorney in the Winchester/Front Royal area who could write one up quickly and won't cost and arm an leg. 

We need to secure financing, and have talked to several lenders with varying options from ARMs to conventional mortgages. we've purchased several homes as primary residences, but this is our first investment property and I want to make sure we're not screwing up here.One loan we got a quote on was a 10 year balloon, 5 year fixed, with an adjustment after 5 years and then locked in again until year 10.
