I’m focused on multi-family and creative financing deals in VA.

New agents may struggle with periods of no income while waiting for deals to close.Solution: Budget wisely, build a financial cushion, and prepare for slow months.

Depends on the actual deal I have seen 85/15 rarely 90/10 but keep in mind your primary home will have a second lien on it typically if your LTV is over 75%. 

If you find a good deal someone will take it.

One of the first deals I had (multi in an up and coming area) my buyer was paying cash and the deal was solid.  

Purchase price: $240,000 Cash invested: $39,000 Sale price: $342,000 Held property for 3 years and rented out the property for 2 years with a rental profit total of $22100 How did you finance this deal?

It is hard to stay calm and always be hospitable when dealing with guests in so many different situations.

I spoke to them about 1.5 months ago and since then they have been non-responsive that makes them look like not the real deal and I'm wondering if they are still around and active and good?

This might sound silly, but an old fashioned spreadsheet if you only have a deal or two.

They try to source deal flow, and raise the capital for the deals.
