Securing a good lender can greatly accelerate your real estate investing journey.

I recently acquired a commercial mixed use at a great price and now that it’s fixed up, it’s worth considerably more and cash flowing well. 

The property now cash flows $4,550/mo after all bills are paid.

I'm making some pretty big moves right now and changing my business plan in a new direction, so I don't want to die of shiny object syndrome, but this method really speaks to me.

outright flips are very, very difficult right now. 

That doesn't bother me, as I am playing the long game.I could easily sell the rest right now and make a handsome profit, but then my income is gone and I have to replace it.

Has become part short term and mid-term rental now.

Best of luck on your journey!

Would love to hear an update on your Real Estate journey, @Kyle Barnhart. 

So now, instead of feeling excited about a new investment, I was scrambling for cash, stressed beyond belief, and facing major repair costs with less rental income to offset them.That experience completely changed how I approach real estate.
