I have been listening to the podcasts for a while but have just started exploring the website.

I have one rental property that I have been self managing for about 10 years but I'm looking to exploring and potentially doing my first Flip this year. 

Explore Financing OptionsChicago offers excellent financing opportunities for house hackers.

You can target value-add deals (BRRRR, rehab, house-hacking), explore short/mid-term rentals, or expand to secondary markets like Ocala, Lakeland, or Jacksonville.

Some lenders offer creative solutions, like a cross-collateralized loan, where they use your existing equity as security without refinancing the duplex.Another idea is partnering with private lenders or exploring a second-position mortgage, depending on your lender's terms.

These options often come with their own set of challenges, but they’re worth exploring if you’re willing to get a bit creative.In short, it’s not easy, but with the right strategy and persistence, it’s doable!

With the equity you’ve built and the cash you have, you could also explore a HELOC or refinancing to open up more opportunities.

Additionally, timing the sale in a lower-income year or exploring potential deductions could further reduce your tax liability.

Our clients include many out-of-state and international investors.I’d recommend keeping an open mind about exploring opportunities in the surrounding cities near Indianapolis as well.

Morning Nathan,Congrats on exploring a big jump-it takes courage to buck the news cycle and confidently reach for a bigger future!
