It's hard work but very rewarding.

Hi Maria,Finding, evaluating, and securing high-return opportunities in private money lending can be rewarding, especially for beginners.

Im selling a Charming 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom home in the heart of Miami With a tenant already in place, this property is producing great income from day one.

@Alex SilangAs someone who does lending I would lend on a long term rental over a short term rental 10/10 timesA STR is more running a business and always having to stay booked whereas long term rental is more stable.Higher reward available = higher riskBanks do not like risk

It can be very rewarding!

I'm hoping taxes/insurance aren't part of the loan so that I can put some credit cards to work and leverage rewards etc.Also, I've seen 1st lien Home Equity Loans, but not 1st lien HELOCs; hoping that product exists, at least via credit unions etc. 

Partnerships are definitely possible and can be rewarding, but I would just make sure the relationship is outlined thoroughly and both members are contributing to the deal in some way. 

If the sale with wrap was a good risk/reward investment it will be profitable, dispite any “bumps” along the way.  

With thorough research and the right local team, it can be a rewarding strategy.Let me know your thoughts!

What kind of rewards have you found to be most motivating for your partners?
