Hello,I'm working on building my real estate brand and am having a hard time deciding how much to combine or separate the sales side of my business from the investing side of things.

It's about equally close to Raleigh, Durham and Chapel Hill, and I've had a couple friends with families move from Raleigh to Pittsboro when they wanted a bigger house/more land while having similar commute to RTP area offices. 

Or worse, if I wanted to use a different contractor to finish it out, would I need to pull brand new permits and go thru a rough in inspection again?

Michael,  I used to work deals in Covina, CA for a large auto franchise brand.  

Just listened to show 190 and Brandon Turner was stating that he went through a dry spell of a couple months without buying a property...

The rate quoted is not dependent upon your credit score, we just need to understand why the score is at that range and has it been improving.Any improvements to the property would need to be paid for with your cash.As we have discussed before, I think you should start with a flip property, maybe even a couple so that you can build up your cash and then use a portion of the cash as collateral for a larger line of credit.

Given your experience, I would recommend partnering on a couple of deals with people more experienced.

How ROI looks in both scenarios ...I ask couple of Hotel owner and they unable to answer or they do not want to give me that answer...
