Quote from @Chris Seveney: @Francisco AvancenaThere are specific lenders who will do land dealsBut of course not as many as traditional real estate.The key will be skin in the game - typically for land because it is less liquid than a home the lender will want to have a lower ltv on the deal I fund land flippers currently in  CO FLA WA ID MT NV AZ OR TX SC GA VA  one thing about land though LTV is lower and RATES are NOT the same as typical HML rates are higher for raw land but its a specialty niche and a business that I grew up in..

Some "euro" games and some traditional ones. 

A REAL fixer needs so much work that it doesn't qualify for traditional financing options.

I know the deferment period for capital gains is almost up, but what are the pros and Cons of an OZF vs a traditional 1031?

Also, compared to a traditional loan (i.e., conventional, FHA, etc.) for a primary residence your rate/points options are going to be higher for an investment.

We have an added layer of stress compared to something turnkey in the traditional sense. 

You need to carry a special type of health insurance, not the traditional kind.

It’s like giving the home a sense of place..a nod to local design traditions while still making it feel fresh.

Tenants can be frustrating (to say the least)... and the situations that come along with them - from stopped up toilets to evictions, among many others, present challenges.I wouldn't recommend a Heloc for a long term hold as the rate is variable... and over 4 units you will require a commercial loan if going the traditional route of financing.  

It’s refreshing to see someone leveraging both traditional methods and community engagement... it’s a solid mix.
