@Yents Ybrimovic If the 203k loan only requires 3.5% down and you can finance all the repairs in the loan - then what exactly is your friend contributing?

If you’re looking to connect with private lenders, start by tapping into your existing network—friends, family, and colleagues can often be a great starting point.

In a tenant friendly state you have to.BTW, when you list, there's a fair housing law. you cannot deny a sec 8 if they qualify. your standards need to be the same for everyone

Would this be something where your daughter would live and 1 or more of her friends would be roommates?

Ryan, this kind of deal reminds me of a situation a friend of mine, Carla, encountered a few years back in a suburb near San Diego.

Have also done work in DC and Maryland and would say Virginia has significant benefits over DC and Maryland because it is more business friendly and jurisdictions are willing to work with not against developers on projects I mentioned as well as you mentioned With the federal government and government contractors not going away - area is great for investment.

One friend of mine had a client who recently tried running an Airbnb in a little Craftsman duplex near North Park.

It's always worth checking recent reviews to ensure you're getting someone who can move at the speed you need.A quick Anecdote: I had a friend who went through a similar process recently.

@Lauren CartmellWhen selling a tenant-occupied property, it’s best to work with an investor-friendly realtor who specializes in investment properties and has access to income-producing buyers.

But he chose that one over the others because it was very user friendly (for our older managers) and it offered a 'Groups' function where we could add certain individuals to different projects.
