Hi everyone, I am a year out of college and eager to get more involved in the real estate industry.

In Texas, the standard earnest money when agents are involved is 1%. 

Since you all are emotionally involved I'd get a full picture from the numbers perspective to aid you all in making a decision one way or the other. 

This step involves casting a wide net to gather a diverse pool of potential sponsors.

I am currently involved with a simple single-family rehab adjacent to a larger ground up project.

We have been actively involved with the entitlement side of multi-family investing. 

I am involved in my first large deal with a silent partner. 

Since my strategy would definitely involve house hacking, I was thinking about house hacking with a mixed-use property.It could be interesting to evaluate as a strategy, but only if I can access financing with a low downpayment.How would that work from a financing standpoint?

Yes, your parents can take out a HELOC on their paid-off home to help fund your BRRRR, but it’s smart to have a contract in place to outline repayment terms and protect everyone involved.

I am also very involved in reviewing proposals, selecting subs, design, etc.
