.- Financing: Starting with cash but hoping to secure loans for future investments.

If something in our market is not a good investment we pass.Hope this helps.One final point, don’t go ALL IN on your first deal.

But it should only be attorney cost, the deed and recording fees (few hundred) , maybe a final water cert.

If you want to find out how much equity you have to see if that’s an option for you, connect with a real estate agent and ask for a professional equity assessment report (PEAR).Who knows, you may find out you have enough equity to buy your next place outright– and with today’s mortgage rates, not having to take out a home loan is pretty incredible.

Like I can do a BRRR on 600k property with no cash-flow or a 150k property with $300 monthly cash-flow, but do not have the same investment vehicle, and it is the same cash that is doing both, as for the 600k purchase I'd be using the same 100k towards hard money loan. 

somewhere in the price range of 50k-100k, because thats  what I can put a 25% down payment on.It sucks not being able to take advantage of an FHA loan for my first home purchase, but I don’t see myself moving soon because my entire family lives in LA. 

For example you'd buy a 200k property for 100k, spend 50k to rehab and then get it appraised for 200k and pull a loan for 150k.

If you have money to burn, and actually have a successful investment/loan with this company, let us know!

One of the big benefits of buying the whole thing on a fixed rate loan is that one of your major expenses is fixed for a long period of time, including the cost of the land. 

Owner occupied loans have allowed us to purchase properties in markets with heavy appreciation, and potential for huge rent increases.
