I wasn’t trying to be long winded, with too much detail, in my initial post but I actually did this method on a fix and flip.

Even if you manage to find an office with an existing tenant, their lease could be approaching expiration, and without plans to renew, it can take an incredibly long time to secure a new tenant for the space.

What strategies do you recommend for securing hard money loans for spec builds?

You can borrow  against a 401k or another property you own for example, but that would a secured loan.

HUD 4000.1 (I believe) is the latest HUD handbook and it goes over all requirements for originating the loan, including but not limited to occupancy requirements and exemptions.FHA occupancy : "At least one Borrower must occupy the Property within 60 Days of signing the security instrument and intend to continue occupancy for at least one year."

I understand the BRRRR method is not all that it used to be in the past years, but given that I have a lot of capital to play with, I figured that I would still be able to find ways to make it applicable.Does anybody have any suggestions/tips for me?

If ODC cannot execute on their funds and are falling well short of performance expectations, then I'm not sure how any potential investor would feel secure in this new 'private credit fund'. 

But why would that make them want to use this financing method?

Hi @Frank Pyle,**I am not affiliated with any of the companies mentioned**To secure long-term financing for your Airbnb, look for DSCR lenders that accept pro forma income instead of requiring 12 months of rental history.
