I saw it coming so I forced myself to learn REI strategies and to read this forums 2-3 times per week.

I'm thinking I'll try out stressa and baselane for a week together and pick one.

Do know of any resources (books, courses, YouTube videos, etc.) to get educated on private money lending?

Or do you offer this type of funding on a transaction that could potentially take a few days, or even a week or two? 

Find Brandon's videos on YouTube for the "four square" method of analyzing homes and practice.

I don't use padsplit (weekly rentals); I rent on long-term leases in B Class neighborhoods.

Pay attention to your weekly and monthly discounts as well. 

What I like about it is the fact I can reach out to them when I have specific questions about a topic or if I wanted more details.Information like this can be found through reading REI books and scourging YT videos.

It makes no sense.I had the same scheduled call with Tom last week then got cancelled 1 hr before.

A cash out refi should take 2-3 weeks with most lenders, and you should have only an appraisal a credit report fee as upfront costs.
