New to RE investing, have watched tons of BP episodes.My goal is to pursue mid-long term buy and hold rental properties, either single or multi-family.

Feel free to add me to your network and let me know how I can help you reach your goals!

Work with a financial planner to evaluate cash flow projections and confirm this move aligns with your long-term financial goals.

In contrast, private lenders focus more on the value of the asset, offering faster, more flexible loans for projects like fix-and-flips or rentals, which can be crucial in time-sensitive deals.It really boils down to your priorities and preferences.

I think you would need to ultimately know what your goals are and honestly what your budget is.

Feel free to share your goals or ask any questions, everyone here loves to help and exchange ideas! 

Set a goal and then connect the dots by taking action each day to reach them.

Also, if you goal is to continue scaling, a real estate CPA could be a great resource for accounting and tools like DSCR loans can help your grow quickly, especially for cash-flowing properties. 

Our goal is to design/build a house that can legitimately be a big SFR or a Padsplit property.

Your goal of buy and hold and flipping so soon seems very difficult, especially with a young child (our first is due in January).
