Is there a private entrance/parking or room to make one?

If you are skilled in each of the areas above, and you have enough in reserves to cover the costs of when things do not go as planned, then you can likely attract money from private money lenders who want to get a return on their money and they see lending to you as a low risk way of earning a better return than in the other passive investing options they have. 

Having reasonable expectations, hiring a local professional (Realtor or PM), doing your research, and doing everything right (i.e. pro photos, professional design, good renovation, proper amenities and location, etc) are the keys to success in 2025.

That is tight leverage for an investment 2nd position loan.A private investor might be willing to do it, it's not going to be cheap at all & will be short-term money & will not be a line of credit to take out at your liking.What is your rate on the 1st?

I could never find anyone that had done business with them.I mean really anyone do no doc 5.75 % private money.. 

I’m currently working on a deal in Fort Lauderdale & actively looking for financing solutions like hard money or private lending.

Partnering with investors or finding a private lender could also be a great way to get started.

They are on a big push to get back in the game though, have you seen their recent ads stressing that they only list private homes?

We do not have contacts with private lenders at this time.

I've closed a bunch of loans with Kiavi, Roc, and a few with ABL, I also closed with RCN, Easy Street, Lima One, and some smaller private lenders.I've come to the conclusion that the experience at the lender is not globally good or globally bad.
