@Anthony Smith, @Keyonte Summers, I'm seeing that some properties are total gut jobs nowadays, with prices rising, might not be out of the question.

@Sri Voodi thanks for the heads up, I've actually put a lot of thought into it and it does scare me a bit, any good recommendations on management, is there a specific one, I was actually looking at Marshall Reddick, but I'm a bit skeptical due to the talk about bad PM nowadays.

We can prepay or pay off the loan at any time.Years ago I would have been terrified to assume so many properties, but I have more confidence nowadays that the rental income will cover unexpected expenses and vacancies. 

Nowadays, I watch my money like a hawk.

Sacramento seems to be buzzing this time of year and even getting yard workers with spare time can be difficult.

After reading about how difficult it is to get a HELOC nowadays, we decided to try it anyway.

There are more money than deals nowadays. 123k is your base charge, don't forget the oops or oh that's not included factor on contractors.

There's a lot of buzz about properties that were bought in Brush Park and other areas like West Village that have had some unbelievable returns in the past decade.The local guys that have built some pretty tremendous returns in Detroit are doing turnkey flipping.

Of course granite is the buzz word and has been for a while,.

The hot buzz word seems to be portfolio lenders but is seems to be a clunky process with a heavy pre-payment penalties The secured business line of credit seems to work like a consumer HELOC and to me would seem to be a better way to acquire funds.Flipping properties with short term loans of a year or less should be less expensive then portfolio  or hard money loansWhat are the pros or cons or these methods or what other types of short term loans would be good for flips ?
