Is it because you have personal relationships with them? 

What matters is that you are the host not another person or company.

Is there a loan on the property in both persons names?

Practical strategies, in this case, can assume a starting point for a person with "x amount" to invest and is ready to start today.

@Prashanth Mahakali has done about 100+ new builds here in Chicago and would be a great person to connect. 

Then a second closing of the owner financed loan could happen that would replace my personal cash in the deal. thanks for your help !

I'm curious about Zelle being only for personal accounts. 

Is 10% a fair rate for a personal loan and would you charge any points?

I’ve flipped in the dc area for years, right now there is just money & in the vast majority of cases there is high likelihood of losing money, right now the best investments in the area imo are buy & hold, I’ve even gone full circle and while I really liked value add for most of the last decade I think in a lot of ways new construction especially in more affordable markets (I’m personally a big fan of the eastern shore market) is a much better way to make money long term than flipping and brrring while I know they are sexy & certainly you getting a huge paycheck is great, there just isn’t any money in it right now, especially in nova.
