hi guys,I have saved a 20% downpayment a property but struggling to save the remaining 65K for fixing the property up.Example, the property cost 150K, I saved up 35k, but struggling to save up an additional 65K to do the rehab (my understanding the lender will not give me the rehab money right away, I have to pay my own money to start rehabbing and the lender then will reimburse me in stages the rehab portion)Correct?

Far too many get stuck in the "paralysis by analysis" stage, thinking they just don't know enough to get started.

I’d appreciate your insights on a complex insurance setup for my recent property purchase.My Setup:• Property purchased in FL under a Trust• Trust is owned by an LLC in FL• Holding company LLC in WY owns the FL LLCSituation:I acquired the property through a subject-to (sub-to) deal, taking over the seller’s mortgage, and I’m arranging insurance coverage.My attorney suggests I:1.

For Canadians seeking to tap into the market in the States, the way the LLC is arranged creates a challenging tax environment and basically leaves you limited return. 

I intend to change to hard flooring when I can arrange to be there for a lengthy time in the off season, because I live long distance.

At this stage I felt saving time is more important than saving money, without hiring a bookkeeper.

At this stage, I’m planning to rely on the lender’s appraisal, though I’m concerned it may come in just above the asking price rather than capturing the property’s full potential.Has anyone encountered a similar situation?

.: @Clinton BoltonI'm a beginning investor (3 properties) and reached that analysis paralysis stage of where should I buy and what (turnkey or a property that needs work). 

Given your stage of life, this could be challenging but worthwhile if you’re confident in handling the stretch.Sell, and reinvest in cash-flow rentals: Using part of the equity to generate cash flow with out-of-state rentals could create a retirement income stream now while still capturing SoCal appreciation.

Are there things you wish you did during the stage of your life that I am?
