I think you have the basics of meeting partners and people to work with in your local market and seem to be well on the way with two deals going already so big congrats there!

Unfortunately, every transaction is different, and oftentimes some transactions are more tricky to deal with than others.

How important is it to have good credit when making these deals? 

Most people bring their own.We also have a bin of razors, q-tips, cotton balls and even a bunch of contact lens cases in the master bath.

And private financing can be wise if you are a diligent investor, which it seems like you are:)*If I would have known then what I know now, I would have used my first loan to land the largest deal that I could have. 

We don't allow any "deal-making" in the forums, which includes advertising your services or properties, looking for partners, etc.

If the home needs anything, I also have great connections with handymen, painters, electricians, plumbers, and general contractors and would be happy to be a resource.The Spring market is already heating up here in KC, so now is a great time to sell to pull back out your cash in the deal.

You might’ve rate-shopped a bit early, but it’s not a deal-breaker.

I have one I need done Yes Im shooting you a message about a deal I am currently working.
