I'll message you privately.

This is investing privately as a lender to a local investor or being LP on an investment such as a syndication.

And if your investor friend’s private loan helps fill in any gaps, it might be worth considering that short-term pain for long-term stability.What do you think you’d focus on first... paying off that line of credit as fast as possible or jumpstarting the renovation to boost cash flow right away? 

Yup and its a joke when you have these proclamations from those running for pres that they are going to magically accelerate construction.. they can do it if they want to pay 100% of it.. but if they expect the private sector that has to work through local zoning etc.. that aint happening and you cant force people to sell the land cheaper than they think its worth or can get on the open market just because we need starter housing.

My goal is to acquire and stabilize these larger properties using private lending to fund down payments and renovations while executing a BRRR strategy.I’d love to connect with private lenders or experienced investors who’ve used private capital for similar deals.

@Luke H.Hi Luke,  As a private money lender myself I will focus on one element of your deal---5 years is a long time to be finally paid. 

However, private financing options are becoming increasingly popular for scaling portfolios.Zoning and restrictions: As you mentioned, regulations for short-term rentals, such as Airbnb, vary significantly.

When people bring up Subject To (very risky) and private money it's usually because they have seen a lot of scaling content.

I am also a lender, with Chase Bank, but want to expand my knowledge on hard money and private financing options.
