Hi Frank, sounds like you’ve built a solid foundation and have exciting plans ahead - If you're planning to scale, you might also want to explore hard money loans or DSCR loans alongside private lending.

I've been interested in real estate investing for a while and finally decided to take the plunge.

Here's how it works:If their deposit is $1,500, they can either choose to pay the SD in full or elect to take out what is essentially a loan with Rhino Insurance and only pay $25 per month ($20 goes to Rhino and the remaining $5 goes to the PM company) toward their $1,500 SD.

EXAMPLE: a local HC has a single comcast email address for their entire office - mysteriously, they seem to be always losing emails and asking us to resend multiple times.The good news is they finally increased their max rental amounts a few years ago, so they are now more competitive. 

Let is know what finally happens and if you are able to solve the issue.

So I am hoping to pull the trigger on a fix and flip in the coming month or two so I can finally go from 0-1!

@Meena MallikFrom my experience, securing financing for commercial real estate involves understanding your options, such as conventional loans, commercial loans, private lenders, or partnerships.

Finally closed it at a 12+ cap on in-place.

I feel like it would be great to trust a property management company on all of this, but it would be hard not to step in if you could do a better job at screening bad tenants (eg screening HUGE future problems).I initially managed properties myself, but now I delegate that responsibility to my business partner, personal assistant, or a property manager at my brokerage.Most PMs I know will send you an applicant for final approval and you can get on the phone with them and ask them questions

Assuming you can get the loan for the new property
