I took the course last October... got swamped in my currently real estate business... went through a 90 day "challenge" course with RAL academy....

Quote from @Palak Patel: Hi everyone,I am new to the rental business and just purchased my first rental property.

Thanks Ryan, now that I’m out of my busy season for work I would def love to attend.

Quote from @Dan Farsht: I am looking to connect with other hard money lenders in the upper Midwest (our business is currently concentrated in the Greater Milwaukee Area). 

It may be easy to rectify, maybe not, depends on your jurisdiction, the issues involved and the City's stance. 

I own a mortgage company, so I have my loan officers use this Fannie Mae income calculation tool for all business for self borrowers: https://singlefamily.fanniemae.com/applications-technology/income-calculator .

Vacancy is a normal part of the business.

I’m pretty handy with tools and business minded.

Also, if it fits your budget and your business needs a write off BPCON lives up to the hype. 

Every loan and bank will have its associated fees and cost as its the price to do business but if you see more leverage in tapping into existing equity that could very well be the case.
