@Lauren Ruppert Yes, an LLC can sell a property to your child’s LLC, ideally at fair market value (FMV) to avoid gift tax complications.

But they still suffer from interest rates and market sentiment factors.

This can provide additional capital for future investments and get the next one.Or evaluating other loan options:Depending on your long-term plans, you could explore conventional loans or portfolio loans that might offer more favorable rates or terms with the new appraisal value factored in.Your decision depends on your broader strategy.

Although, it's very capital intensive and you have to rely on a lot of factors you can't control, contractors, interest rates, market shifts, realtors, buyers, appraisers, inspectors, material costs, weather etc etc.

They have no 2-factor authentication and don't email you to confirm that you want to update your login, both of which I'd consider industry standard these days.

Focusing on homes that area ideally under 1500 sq ft. 

This factoring includes the presence of competent contractors who can limit unforeseen surprises and costs.Myth 2: They're Too Risky to Invest InThere is risk in any investment; however, distressed properties are not inherently riskier than any other real estate investment.

@Eli Fazzo, Almost every location is going to have some surprises that you just have to factor in when looking at investing in real estate. 

Loans like this can be useful or very dangerous, depending on how you manage your business.The ideal situation for a loan like this is when you have a property that will take a while to get up and running. 

However, I would encourage you to Network work local real estate clubs in the PA/NJ area to help identify your target market and ideal investment for your first property.
