A HELOC offers flexibility, as you only pay interest on what you use, but rates tend to be variable.

However, full site visits, though more expensive, maximize tax savings by capturing every depreciable asset and offer better audit protection.While online studies may be suitable for simpler properties, full site visits are ideal for complex or high-value properties.

@Kane Spangler There's a since of pressure to build or buy RE in your post.

I'd be curious to get your opinion or anybody else on the post.

It’s clear that the evolving market, especially post-GFC have shaped your perspective, and you’ve outlined some valuable points about the flexibility and challenges of private lending.The flexibility in ARV and LTV is such a huge advantage, especially for investors who might not have traditional financing options.

Sure, all channels can work, even seller financing or foreclosures, but in my experience, a well-connected agent can uncover hidden gems that often outperform the trickier avenues.Since the post is still fresh, I’m curious.. do you foresee other potential add ons that might elevate the returns even further, like corporate housing partnerships or short-term seasonal leases?

Investors and agents often post when they need help with admin tasks or market research.

Meetup and eventbrite seem to be the other platforms that people post them in.
