Unlike investing in random properties, their methodical approach ensures that each investment is strategically placed for the best potential.

I have investors that I set up loans with private money that only use this method because of the speed.

As long as you paid a contractor or someone who’s not an employee $600 or more in a tax year, you are required to issue them a Form 1099, regardless of whether you paid them via cash, check, or another method.

In working on construction loan financing, the lender informed me I'll need to unencumber that portion of the property (makes sense) before closing on the construction loan.I understand there to be two methods generally speaking: refinancing my mortgage and removing that portion of the property in the process OR attaining a partial release from the lender to remove that land.I *strongly* want to avoid refinancing as I have an amazing rate, but partial releases seem complex and also require a survey.

You can also check online resources like BiggerPockets or Roofstock, which offer general CapEx guidelines based on property type and age.These methods should help you perform a solid preliminary analysis.

I am sure there are people who did it, even on this forum I saw posts by multiple users who claimed that they were successful doing this method.

Live in one unit and rent out the others to cover your mortgage.Seller Financing: Negotiate terms with the property seller where they act as the lender, often requiring a smaller down payment and bypassing traditional underwriting.Partnerships or Joint Ventures: Partner with an investor who provides the capital in exchange for a share of the property’s equity or income.Lease Options: Use a rent-to-own agreement, which allows you to control the property while saving for a formal purchase.BRRRR Method (Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat): Acquire a distressed property with short-term financing, rehab it to increase value, rent it out, and refinance to recoup your initial investment.Pro TipStay in close communication with your lender as you approach your next purchase.

@Elizabeth RossFor properties under 100k you will likely need to use the BRRR method as its difficult to get a 30Y loan on a properties valued under 100k.

Obviously if you’ve done this before you likely have a method you prefer for dealing with these types of things.

Most who try to replace their W2 income invest in less sustainable investment methods: investing in lower tier neighborhoods that cash flow well in spreadsheets or flipping homes.
