Depending on your state, many have local lenders that will go up to 100% LTV. 

I’d love to connect with local investors and agents and, further down the line, with contractors when we’re ready to take the next steps.Looking forward to connecting and learning from everyone here!

I recommend checking local crime statistics on SpotCrime.

Hindsight is 20/20, and my education (courtesy of the school of hard knocks called Life) has shaped my approach to real estate investing and how I help others achieve their goals.Since 2021, I’ve been working full-time in real estate, specializing in assisting both local and out-of-state investors in acquiring small multi-family properties and short-term rentals.I would love to meet up with you and further discuss your REI interests and goals.

I am going to see if I can switch to a local Wisconsin insurance that reflects our local risk level in their premiums.Many of the homes in the Pacific Palisades are 3-5 million, but when you look on Google Street View, most are very modest homes from the 1960s (there are some $20m ultra luxury mansions too), so a lot is the land value, the home replacement value on a 1600sqft may be what - 500k at the most?

HE JUST CONSOLIDATED THEM ALL ALONG WITH HIS PDF CONTRACTS (WHICH ARE ALSO ALL OVER THE INTERNET) INTO ONE CENTRALIZED AREA... 5) He ADDED MORE OF THE SMALL NUGGET VIDEOS TAKING A SIMPLE PROCESS AND BREAKING IT DOWN LITTLE BY LITTLE (NOT SO MUCH FOR UNDERSTANDING PURPOSES) BUT MORE TO MAKE PROGRAM MORE ROBUST AND EVENTFUL 6) AND USED SIMPLE JSON CODING AND SQL (LIKE ZAPIER AND GLOBIFLOW) which can be done by using WordPress quite easily and created a lease option customer data entry base (CALLING IT THE LEASE OPTION THIS AND THE LEASE OPTION THAT DATABASE) It's basically the large packaged smoke and mirrors with a little touch of value and abundance simultaneously being thrown at you that will cause you to do one of two things (which is kind of the goal)  1) You get overwhelmed instead of focused and quit, or 2) you ignore all of his "upsells" and focus on the material you have and use what he gives you to the utmost extent...

A buddy of mine who invests out in Phoenix once had a client facing a similar timing mismatch on a rehab project.. they ended up working closely with a local credit union who was more open to interim valuations.

I would say that the value he brings is finding the deals, doing an initial diligence, having a local team set up for renovations/repairs/property management as well as knowledge of the neighborhood.

@Jason Khoury I purchased my current residence, a duplex, from a local non-profit about 5 years ago.

Nonetheless, it was made possible by a local credit union.
