We look at keeping moderate leverage, and like to BRRR, But we also focus on areas of the city that we think are up and coming. 

You need capital to run these things.My opinion stands as before, A VA loan is a moderate advantage in some scenarios.

I sent a pm to a couple of moderators about the issue, but haven't received a response yet.

I have a partner who is moderately experienced in real estate.

Given that low supply I think there will still be some moderate appreciation in the two to four percent range.

This is how I would categorize lenders with some basic limiting underwriting factors:Banks/credit units - long seasoning, GLOBAL DTI, rigid documentation, good/long-term ratesTier 1 private money (institutional private money) - Short seasoning, property DTI, rigid doc, good/long-term rates (not as low as banks)Tier 2 private money (institutional private money) - Short seasoning, NO DTI, asset based, moderate doc, higher long term ratesTier 3 private money (institutional private money - bridge term lending, typically interest only type loans for 12-24 months. 

If it is low to moderate, most of the time you don't. 

A moderate amount of secured private lending could actually be a great help in a downtown.

Select whether it would be a collective effort (somehow keep it very moderated to only relevant responses) between us all or select a number of BP members. 2.

You'll have to get commercial financing, but you'll have options on the lending.Also a warning from your friendly neighborhood moderator.
