@Yents Ybrimovic If the 203k loan only requires 3.5% down and you can finance all the repairs in the loan - then what exactly is your friend contributing?

LLC is a pass thru entity so it should reflect on your individual return

I have to decide if im going to use a new injection of capital from the sale of my primary residence to:1) Hold in treasury bills at 4.5 percent until I find another property to purchase2) Pay off one of two existing mortgages, one at 3.75 percent and another at 4.5 percent3) Just find something to buy that beats either of those percentages on paper and be done with it4) Possibly loan out some hard money/broker it to a friend to allocateIts never an easy decision, but its a good problem to have.

I had a friend who came to me early '09' in a panic.

Once you buy a few the deals start coming from all places you wouldn't expect.I met a business owner in town and became friends.

Try Ethan Whitley with Crye-Leike Realtors, he is good friend and does alot of commercial in the area.

Alternatively, your GC can keep you posted on progress, but having a local project manager or even a trusted friend to occasionally drop by can provide extra peace of mind.Hope this helps, and good luck with your rehab project!

In my almost 20 years of doing Subject 2's and working with other investors in almost every State in the US, in the very few instances the Due on Sale is called it is because if the inexperience of the Investor in not knowing how the transaction is to be done, (not closing with a Title Company or Attorney, not doing the Insurance correctly)Most of all, (not communicating with the seller) Bank calls the Seller to offer them Life Insurance or some other service, and the seller tells them, "I don't own that house any longer, some guy took that house from me and put some renter in it"If you dig into any investor that tells you they had a property or a friend of their brother in laws Collage roommate that had the Due on Sale clause called, you will most likely find that the investor screwed up somewhere.This is why Education and knowledge is needed on any Real Estate transaction.I get calls almost everyday from someone who screwed up on a Subject 2 and is asking to be bailed out, many times they do not want to pay for help, and things just get worse.If you know how to make the Bank Comfortable with the transaction, all is good.Last year I had a couple of hedge fund managers call me asking how they can offer their under preforming loans to Investors to by Subject 2, wow what a great deal, I could call Pace and he would have buyers the same day for a 1,000 homes, but the legal aspect of this would hold the Hedge fund liable so we could not do a deal.

What you're doing there is making friends, and you make a lot of friends this way.

Another friend who invests heavily in Phoenix shared a story about her first deal there..she jumped too quickly into a duplex without adding a little cushion for those first-year capital improvements.
