Here are key factors to consider when searching for a reliable broker.A good private money broker plays a pivotal role in facilitating real estate investments, serving as a bridge between investors seeking capital and private lenders willing to finance those investments.

Since yours is only water and heat I would recommend you charge 50% and lower the rent cost rather than factoring it into the rent price.

Factors like real estate trends, property taxes, and competition also play a role.

Construction loan through a hard money lender - where your purchase price and rehab budget are factored into the loan, this will give you the highest cash on cash return2.
