I also diversify into alternative real estate, like self-storage, to stay ahead of emerging trends.I’ve learned valuable lessons over the years, particularly the importance of clear communication and aligning expectations in partnerships.

Specifically, must this be a commercial/business loan type where you have higher rates and shorter loan life or is there an alternative loan type? 

Alternative is the sherif evicts him and I pay tax and insurance.I know we can have a gentleman's agreement on these things, but im still afraid he might be able to legally sue me if we have a legitimate residential lease?

Not to mention the general PHX market has become expensive and people have already been looking for cost efficient alternatives in the northwest and southeast corners of the valley. 

Does anyone have any advice on how to find a duplex or a good alternative way of starting to invest?

Alternatively the other side of the city (Pikesville, Towson outskirts) still decent rentals but they are farther from employment centers.

Hi to everyone,I would like to ask that ,my banks in my country (Greece) are unable to provide refinance options for the BRRRR method (Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat), what alternative realistic strategies can I consider for implementing this investment approach?

Have you looked into local credit unions or alternative financing programs?

I would love to hear from other more experienced in the field about alternative ways to financing that I should consider besides the HELOC, maybe also hear from investors on how the process of bringing investors onboard works.

Alternatively, I could explore loan recasting, where the lender recalculates my monthly payment based on the reduced principal, keeping the original loan term intact.
