Skip tracing provides nothing, neighbors say they know nothing, even the private investigator is having trouble locating information on them.

I provide my network of investors with a private list of 10 - 15 off-market single family investment properties around the greater Tampa Bay area each month.I also buy properties in any condition.Between my colleagues and I, we have quite a network of contacts to provide as a resource to you. 

I've secured financing, decided that pursuing a BRRRR deal sits well with our risk tolerance and financial situation, and now we have to find it.While "driving for dollars", Zillow, and networking have landed me a couple leads, I feel as though working with wholesalers will be a huge asset. 

With market the way it has been dont want it to go down 25 percent then they call your loan because you don't have enough value to secure loan for some reason.

I am looking to purchase a new construction home from a private builder- so not a big name company.  

Shoot me a private message if you'd like their contact info.  

As I'm conducting more research,  I believe it's best to start off without forming a legal entity until I secure sufficient funding.  

(d) Solicits borrowers or lenders for or negotiates loans or collects payments or performs services for borrowers or lenders or note owners in connection with loans secured directly or collaterally by liens on real property or on a business opportunity. 

Let's say someone is starting out with no money and they get a hard money or private money loan for 100% of the purchase price and repairs, etc.

If I was you, I would seek out a small local bank & try to obtain a commercial loan for each property you want to buy  .If you can't do that then I would seek out private money from somebody that you know or know of.I would also strongly suggest trying to get the owner to finance if you can.There are lots of ways to get money, but hard money lenders should probably be your last choice.
