Having multiple layers of protection is a smart approach to mitigate the risk of not being paid back in a 2nd position loan.

I absolutely refuse to even speak with any of their guys when they approach me at REIAs and meetups etc.

I am located at Central Florida area, and I believe that even with the high prices, higher interest rates and huge supply of real state down here, still out here many great opportunities.The market still hot, we just need to adjust the approach..... at least are my guts feelings.v/r

My approach is somewhat unique since I'm a builder; I build my units from the ground up and then decide whether to use them for LTRs, STRs, or sell them outright.

On the other hand, leverage could allow me to acquire multiple properties faster.Considering my circumstances (unknown target market, family support in Fort Wayne, long-term goals), what approach would you recommend?
