Hey @Frank Pyle, this is always a tough thing.

So we are talking about a 5 or 6 week process with no court supervision required. 

Hello BP community, I would love to hear more about the process of developing in Washington DC.

depending on how backed up the county is it can e take a few months for court date. in essex county it took my mother in law about 8 months or so for the full process. she had an attorney, not sure if that sped anything up

Joshua Tree is a bit of a tough market as there are a lot of STRs in the area.Be prepared that your first year might be a little thin as you are new and need to build up some reviews to get rolling.The interior is a bit of a toss up.

That can be tough when it's a one-off job or you only have one rental.

@Timothy Frazier  This will be tough as the HML will want a 1st position loan, but so will the other lender providing the rest of the funds. 

I’ve heard a lot about BRRRR, fix-and-flip, and rental properties, but I’m curious about what’s working for you all right now.I know from talking to people that some have gotten into bad deals while using their own money, and I’m worried that using bank funding and ending up in a bad deal could make things even worse—not just for the investment but for the relationship with the bank as well.I’m just trying to make sure my clients use this funding in the right way, without getting themselves into a tough spot.

@Helena Goyvaerts it will be tough without 2+ years of USA tax returns showing you are profitable.Higher interest rates have negatively affected most lenders and many of them are getting more aggressive with offering more flexible programs. 

Start the eviction process.
