Institutional hard money lenders will not lend to you personally or on a home you are occupying.

Hi Jared, I`m a college senior and I am looking to get into this space is this a viable option for when it comes to creating financial freedom?

Stessa's reports are great, but the sync issues with financial institutions drive me nuts.

I have re-sparked my desire to become financially independent through real estate.  

Autocratic governments tend to have even more issues because the issues are hidden from the public and nobody within those institutions wants to risk pushing them up the chain to get solved. 

Great tools that get updated regularly.I am on the lending side of things and would be happy to hop on a call with you anytime to discuss financial strategies and help answer any questions you may have about nearly any loan product available to help you on your journey, even if they are not products my capital partners offer.We are all here to help you learn and grow.

The only way that I've found for it to make sense financially given such low down payments, has been to turn them into short term rentals. 

@James KieferRecommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a Class A property in Class D area, what quality of tenant will you get?

Biggerpockets was instrumental in my journey towards financial freedom.

Play the long game but realize that maximizing long term net worth has to stop if you want to be financially independent.3.
