They're the ones working with those agencies on a regular basis and have the best referrals.As far as recovering the debt, try leveling with the tenant as much as possible so they grasp the seriousness of being sent to collections.

I doubt many are going into credit card debt or if they are that's kind of crazy.. as this part of real estate has no smoke and mirrors generally.And I suspect because most of these folks are doing some sort of PPM and need to deal with accredited investors.. that separates those wanting to start to those who have already had some financial win's or experience and just looking for a new avenue.. 

If you have large debt with a high interest rate, I would consider paying that off before getting started investing in real estate.

Many of my customers who are traveling nurses buy condos or townhomes in Florida as vacation homes, then rent them out when they're not in town.This system has proven to be very lucrative, as it allows them to service the mortgage debt and generate a good cash flow.

@Guillermo PerezPositives:- Equity Built: You now have $70K in equity, which is a solid result for your first deal.Cash Flow Potential: If the property rents well and covers your debt service while providing some cash flow, that’s a win.- Experience: You’ve successfully navigated a purchase, rehab, and refinance, which are the core components of BRRRR.Considerations: - Budget Overrun: Being $27K over budget highlights the importance of tighter cost estimates and contingencies.

Our program offers a range of coverage levels, including basic or special form coverage and actual cash value (ACV) or replacement cost (RC) loss settlement methods.

There are a bunch of ways to do this depending on the property type, usage, and you (income and credit scores).If this is a primary residence, you can get up to 90% of the value of your home minus any exisitng debt. 

In other words, your renters have covered a majority of your costs of ownership this year, including covering your debt, and you have to put some additional money in, which raises your cost basis.
