Almost every dollar I make (active or passive) has a job when it hits my bank account.

Hi Shawn, When I left banking during the last major crash and started this company, we primarily were a commercial bridge lender, but we also were a real estate investor.

Banks DON'T just get to keep the entire proceeds.  

If there’s anyone that attended one of these MFM seminars and is considering it, let’s connect as I believe we can create a win-win and you can actually be an investor rather than a piggy bank for shops like them.  

Some banks may lend as a HELOC on the rental property, or refinance it, but you're right you'd have to get your mom on board for that. 

I did some digging and am comfortable with the water issue, but I find it amazing what banks/HUD will do.My last HUD house they flooded it two days before my closing.

But then again every lender that is not my commercial banks I find frustrating. :)..

We had to sell virtually everything we owned so we would not default with our commercial banks and or file BK. 

Personally I have not had much luck with seller financing when there are agents involved - most don’t understand it and think it just makes the deal more complicated.Did you check with your bank to see if they will mind you having a second loan on the property?

@Lily Jensen, I've come across a few banks that will do HELOC's for investment properties that I can share with you here locally in Florida.
