Any insights or recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

At closing a Note was issued and a Mortgage/Deed of Trust were issued showing the Borrower (Investor's) indebtedness to me, with a Mortgage/Deed of Trust showing my rights as Lender over the Borrower's property.I have received mixed recommendations on this topic and am looking for guidance that is consistent.Specifically, I lent money and had the investor/borrower/property owner place me as "Mortgagee" on their property's insurance policy.

I would not recommend doing anything outside of a first position

As a hard money lender operating in the Central Florida area, including Tampa, I can tell you that the market here remains strong, with plenty of opportunities for savvy investors.Tampa's real estate market has been quite active, with demand still high, especially in desirable neighborhoods.

I wouldn't recommend getting a loan for a down payment but if you do be careful cause your DSCR might not cashflow as well.Let me know if you want to discuss this any further or have any other questions.Best,Jackson
