One suggested paying a GC a couple hundred for an estimate which sounds good until you realize you might do this 10-15 times before you buy a deal then you are spending thousands on estimates!

The reason is there is usually a resturant or other retail shop there and now you have customers you would never have that WILL spend money while they wait 20 to 30 minutes to charge.

If you want to JV your wholesale deals you want to do it with someone you know, like, and trust over time and have met in person.There’s nothing more wasteful and inefficient (in the private sector) than financial intermediaries engaging in a “daisy chain” to try to close “undoable” deals.

I have already talked to a private lender of mine that tentatively agreed to lend on the deal.

Not hard money, not private money.

Ill send you a private message prior to my arrival to SA so we can meet.

Banks like to match short term assets with short term liabilities, and vice versa.I don't believe that DSCR loans are "expensive", but they do require a more thorough underwriting and higher amount of financial documentation other private and hard money loans.It generally helps to have a Fractional CFO or Loan Consultant (not a broker) that will work on your behalf to negotiate better DSCR terms and rates.

Its a small cost but will pretty much guarantee you don't have to spend your time going to a house to unlock a door. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Sc...
