You need to master the art of doing a few and then take on multiple projects once you have systems down.

I have been so focused on my development projects and haven't had a chance to branch that route yet. 

Here are my main concerns:Cash flow concerns: Based on my current mortgage and projected rent, I'd be looking at negative cash flow unless I refinance in a few years.

So I think one thing you might need to add to your calculations is the projected value of the house over time and any anticipated rent increases.

I've always been a bit of a "job hopper" and have worked in several different industries over the years (eg. healthcare, insurance, bartending, audio engineering, project management, adult corrections, and other security work).

So the question is have you guys ever used a hard money lender before do you recommend it or just figure out how to get the cash yourself or find properties that can go for conventional if the seller even considers it I own a contracting company and a moving/junk company so our projects I know for a fact I can do at a fraction of the cost as most investors but still I’m getting out bid to no end where I can’t see the money at all I’m not sure what there seeing but that’s a whole other story Anyways would love to hear from you guys if you used hard money lenders before and what to be careful with I’m just trying to see all my options Thank you in advance 

Thanks,  We may have a short term rehab/renovation project at Lake Lanier in Georgia if interested.

They all look pretty in the presentation and everyone always says the projections are conservative, but then how many deals have gone bad? 

As you grow your portfolio and tackle bigger projects, your perspective on what constitutes a significant deal will change.
