So, now to understand if there is a benefit and to determine a cost I get to give them more money after spending $35K.   

C-class locations can make money but your operatins need to be on point.

Hey BP Fam- What is the best hard money lender for someone who is new looking to fix/flip? 

Absolutely not.According to Heather and Brandon Turner's book, the fact that they want to put so much money up front means they are trying to distract you from something else they don't want you to see, and hope that offering you enough money will accomplish that.

How tight is your money game?

With baseball, you start making money once you reach the big leagues, in the minor leagues, every player's salary ranges from 34k to 39k.

Booking.com is even more expensive than VRBO/ABNB, so you will likely be costing yourself money for every Booking.com reservation.

I am an investor and I also happen to do some private money lending.

I have a potential tenant who is requesting to pay rent by money order rather than through the RentRedi platform. 

That is, unless investors are now willing to pay more than the 1% rule used to dictate.I know it will cost some time and money to get them vacant and fixed up, but the alternative seems to be to leave 10s of thousands of dollars on the table.
