That is literally the only thing worrying me, I don’t have the credit or funds to cover a 10–15% cost up front (skin in the game)I do know most HML will want points and other small various upfront cost I can come up with that.. but I would love to get a 100% financed deal under my belt, again this would be my first.

At this time I want to focus on Rochester and get at least one under my belt and not get distracted by the next best thing.

You need to get your first deal under your belt and learn the ins and outs of being in the business.  

Friday 8:55pm- As-Is offer submitted.Today- Deal closed.When your buyer has a few hundred deals under their belt its pretty low key.Realtors or Investors we always have tough deals or at least we talk about the tough ones.

My plan for my business is to get a few flips and wholesales under my belt and then start moving into buy and hold.

Should I do some more smaller stuff to get more experience under my belt or since I have the finances, to go ahead and jump right into bigger deals?

The belt line encompasses everything from $19k burned-out husks to $7million+ estates.

There's a lot of variation, but overall it's a rust belt city that has a lot of opportunity for improvement.

I have access to private money and have a few deals under my belt so I am ready to jump on a deal that works for me. 

We have people in their late teens and early twenties who have actual deals under their belts.
