I just completed my 20 hour course for my Illinois Mortgage Lending License and the final step is taking the state exam.

If the market moves against you, it takes too much capital to fix it.Contrast that to this scenario:  let’s say that the acquisition loan was 60% LTV originally, and after a market drop of 30% the loan is now 85%.  

This would help reduce the amount needed for a bridge loan to fund the acquisition and renovate the four vacant units.

Finally, I was told, in their company's words that they are the "Rolls Royce [of taxes]" for real estate investors.

Even as early as this August, they were supposed to send us our original investment back, and then it really took a turn last week and when I finally got Neal on a Zoom call, he was talking another 2 years before it all played out. 

For our ADU (garage conversion), I am handling the design/engineering and then selecting a final contractor once its permitted and ready to go. 

Does anyone have any contacts to their acquisitions team and or their current buy boxes Companies below Cerberus Capital Management, L.PAngelo Gordon & Co.GoldenTree Asset ManagementFarallon Capital ManagementOaktree Capital ManagementI own one of the largest wholesale real estate company in Florida and we are newly into Texas for single family homes.

Plot 1: 2024 market value of $6,900. 45x120Plot 2: 2024 market value of $3,800. 100x94I'm still pretty new to the game, so I have no experience with land deals, ground up construction, zoning, things of that nature, and am wondering what the best play is.Sell one to help with acquisition costs and build an ADU on the other?
