Quote from @Eric Mcginn: Long time BRRRer here, planning on leaving my W2 soon to pursue flips (and raise my babies)   Ive read the BP book on flipping.

Although I'm confident I can fix and flip it, my plan is to keep it as a rental.My dilemma is... where do I get the rehab funds? 

And it most likely will.There are some loan products available for low downpayment if you are willing to do a live and flip situation. 

Very few lenders will, especially for 1-4 unit SFR and doing a fix and flip. 

We are not flipping the house are are just trying to acquire it. 

I've been investing in real estate for 4 years, have some buy and holds, did some land flipping as well as wholesaling.

Alot of investors I know from California are mostly going out of state to find deals both to flip and to hold. 

Many investors hesitate to start their next fix-and-flip project due to barriers like limited funding, uncertainty in market conditions, lack of experience in estimating renovation costs, or fear of unexpected delays and expenses.

Thought it was a safe first investment, instead of flipping or fixing with no prior experience.

I have been an agent for about 3.5 years, and working on acquiring my first couple deals for flips/BRRRR's asap.
