Is there a reason why you are set on a traditional duplex? 

If your project qualifies for EPP (Express Permit Program), then you don’t have to secure permits in the traditional way.

I was looking for partners in my network who wanted to JV on this property, but they wanted to know for certain that the title was clear since it was through a wholesaler and not "traditionally" through a realtor.   

And I would find a decent job to utilize to help get traditional lending with.

But I’ve never personally invested in real estate using business credit more traditional for my first property, so I’m always curious when clients say they want to use this funding for a real estate deal.Here’s where I get stuck:Real estate deals can be risky, especially if the project takes longer than 12 months to close or unexpected costs pop up.With prices climbing, it feels like the margin for error is smaller than ever.Would you recommend someone use business credit to invest in real estate?

They also utilize a department management style instead of the traditional portfolio management style. hahaThat roo sure is buff lolI didn't know that about Yelp.We usually get our investors to post on Google, Facebook and Turnkey-Reviews.I guess we need to request Yelp now also :)You learn something new everyday Speak soonps.

Qualified renters can opt to pay a non-refundable monthly fee instead of a traditional deposit.

I'm in a beach area where Sat to Sat rentals have been traditional for 100 years, but not any longer since the rise of Airbnb (and less control by local property management companies).

While traditional loans might be tough with current interest rates and no W2s, there are definitely creative financing options and strategies to consider.One possibility is exploring seller financing.

Stock market is traditionally much more volatile.
