Here is my website if you have any suggestions: https://maxiemaids.com/I've tried using cold email and some cold calling to get in contact with realtors and property managers, but it has not turned into consistent business.

I would suggest you up your rate from 8% to 10% to help off-set some of that cost. 10% is doable all day long here in Texas.

Connecting with local contractors or experienced investors in your area is also very helpful for getting accurate numbers.For ARV you’ll want to look at comps; You can start on Zillow or Realtor.com but I highly suggest connecting with a local agent.

You could also get a line of credit for about $150k (you should be able to borrow 75% of the value.)The reason I suggest this is…1) you save $40-$60k in selling costs. 2) you have a lower blended interest rate (2/3rds at 3.25% and 1/3rd at 7 or 8% instead of the whole $500k at 7 or 8%) saving you another $1k/mo in interest. 3) you only pay interest on that $150k when you actually use it, not from day 1 Unless you hate this property, or want to buy something you can’t afford without selling, that would be my plan.

But I’d suggest with inflation eating at your returns I’d still try to get 10, even if it takes longer.

I suggest you start with developers in your local area (your county and neighboring counties level) because they would be your most likely partner or parcel buyer.

I won't fault those syndicators that have stopped distribution or even doing capital calls if they do spend time manage the property and try to find solutions to the problems.I suggest BP have a hall of fame and hall of shame for these syndicators.
