Happy to have a conversation as a lot of my clients are international investors in the US.

Your first move at 18-21 should be house hacking (buying a small multi-family and renting out units).

Hey everyone, a new development in the area where I invest, is offering a 5.99% interest rate (conventional loan) and 2% of purchase price in closing costs.

The clients we work with who have found success letting us help them find highest and best use of properties, then we manage them for a year, and then pull out 60-70% of their money, and do it again - rather than waiting several years for a home run hit. 

It would be best if you could mention those so that i can tell you what to delegate and what type of assistance you need

Still open to them of course.  

But what kind of project are you looking to complete?

We've been doing a lot of work on the house but most of it has been minor cosmetic stuff.

With how much equity you have in your primary if it was me I would think about doing a cash out refinance for the whole thing as rates would be lower.

Hi Hazel, I work with a lot of investor clients from OOS and have carefully vetted general contractors that are licensed, bonded, and insured and do great quality of work.
