Network with other investors, consult with a real estate professional, and move quickly when you locate a good offer.

@David Garcia Fyi, I recently applied for a Heloc with Figure and they said they are currently not offering helocs as an option in my area(Tampa)>

So I'm looking to get started in real estate investing and I came across this group.i was wondering if anyone knew anything bout them and what they had to say.Seemed to me that no one who was involved with this group was really willing to let me be a part of anything until I paid for the expensive program they were offering.

Looking at 4-5 months from initial offer to listing and I have a GC handling all the work, so my time has been just driving to check status/give input/drop off payment.

Especially since you don't live in SD anymore.Lastly, multi family units and apartment complexes simply offer greater economies of scale for maintenance and other expenses because it's more "doors" under one roof.

Some lenders will offer a blend of the two with something like a 14 year term.If a lender asks for more, they're imposing additional restrictions over and above what SBA requires.  

So here it is: Asking price: $70,000What I intend to offer (if I offer): $45,000.

We've gone back and forth on offering a unit or two as fully furnished mid-term rentals but are on the fence. 

I'm also contemplating offering a 20-month lease, though I worry it might seem daunting to the tenant.

Hey Kailey,I have several banks I work with that offer a ton of DSCR products in both states.
