In summary, leveraging an earnest money lending partner can be a game-changing strategy for scaling a fix-and-flip business, enabling investors to navigate the market more effectively and capitalize on lucrative opportunities.

You also want to consider the capital you're comfortable investing.

Hi All,I am a relatively new investor without a lot of capital to start out with. 

Maybe it's something, but I can't see it from the post.Do you have the capital? 

Debt: Seller FinanceEquity: Raised capital from friends and family How did you add value to the deal?

If a limited partner is in a tax bracket (earning less than 50k per year) approximately how much would they owe in capital gains after the asset is sold? 

Be prepared to use initial capital to get in contact with leads and market.

Avoid personal use of the property, as it can limit deductions, and be careful to correctly classify repairs versus capital improvements, as improvements must be depreciated.

The pref equity would pay out a 7% (annualized) quarterly distribution and a 7% back end return when the pref equity capital is returned.

They're going to want to know how you are going to be a steward of their capital, and sharing your business plan makes sense, especially if you've never done business with them.We used to give them our credibility book.
