Big money investors doing projects between downtown and Northpark. 

Currently working with a Tech student and investor (won't tag him unless he wants to chime in himself) on a short sale deal that is providing him with massive amounts of built-in equity out of the gate since he was able to get it so far below market value.

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? 

IMO the benefits of cash value life insurance have been massively oversold.

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

I know out this way we have to design our project for 100 year storm events.
