Any advice on different ways to fund a flip and find a flip??

Quote from @Devin Peterson: Does anyone know the regulation behind licensed MLOs brokering or originating commercial loans in states that don't require licensing under a different company from the one the MLO is currently sponsored by who is NMLS regulated?

I’m based in Tampa and run Graystone Investment Group, focusing heavily on helping (out of state) investors find and manage properties here in Florida.Totally agree on the importance of understanding those short-term rental rules in Florida—each area can feel like its own little country with all the different regulations!

I am looking into purchasing a STR in a different state and was wondering if you would be willing to give me some tips you learned along the way?  

For BRRRR, or flips in general.Tlooking also to have sort of lifestyle and not living in cold 1/4 of the year with snow.the question, is there is big differences between markets? 

I have lived and worked real estate in both Fayetteville and Phoenix currently in Mesa.They are both great but the strategy is a little different.

And keep in mind; getting sold and getting informed are 2 very different things.

The reality of investing is often much different than people see on social media - you need the fuel to power your investment properties!

If you have a residential earnest money dispute its very different than negotiating a national retail NNN lease.Transactional vs litigationResidential vs commercialThose would go a long way to finding the best referral for your needs 

While many experienced investors buy them up as fast as they can.You are going to get a lot of varying and different advice.
