Said his buddy walked through it and he wanted to see it himself. 

I'll get there buddy lol Nice site by the way, nice design.

My buddy in the building next door is in Palm Springs for the winter and my tenants have erratic schedules.  

Thanks for great suggestion, it could be the best, short and understandable advice buddy.

If you say jump they should jump, how high is the only question buddy.

Bart,Welcome buddy!

So, I would say if you sit down and make a list of all the people you feel like you can approach using your phone book from your cell, your friends list from facebook if you have an account, or any other organization you belong to including family and you speak with all of those people you list and can't find any private money, then perhaps you will have to use a HM loan to do these deals and refi with a bank until you have built 1) enough cash to bypass the HM or 2) have enough equity/relationship with the bank to obtain an LOC.I didn't have enough to flip in the beginning either so I used rental  property to make equity and upon refi ing those properties bought on contract initially with a local bank I gained a large equity position in my properties that I used as an LOC to then enter the flipping market.Hope that helps ya out buddy!

I'm from Jersey City originally and have some good buddies over at McGuire with ya.

(open to all suggestions)My buddy approached me about going half with him on a vacation rental in Puerto Rico.  

My buddy, who is reliable and understands real estate a lot more than I do and has a high paying career, approached me about going half with him on a vacation rental in Puerto Rico.
