@Jacques CaspiTo succeed in real estate investing, I’ve found it’s crucial to budget for unexpected expenses, focus on thorough tenant screening, and build strong relationships with contractors.

(FYI - To keep it "real" I also say in the listing this is virtual staging).

Looking to get into flipping projects preferably in the western suburbs

I'm excited for the opportunity to be apart of the community with BP, I reside in the state of Virginia and started my investment journey many years ago at 22 doing fix and flips, I stopped when the market crashed in 2007/2008 and didn't like the way the market looked and I left the investing world, I became a mortgage loan officer, and then processor and later underwriter and learned the backend of the conventional lending world.

In Florida, hold over tenants can legally be charged double rents, that is FL state law.

Here are my thoughts/questions:-When you say "builder" please give some more background...is this someone who builds a handful of spec homes a year in the area?

Are there people in Fort Worth that are actively involved in wholesaling and/or fixing fliping?

I know on my new builds since we cant put the BAC on the listing the brokers bringing in Buyers just pop in what they want to make and well its more than I am willing to pay when I have to build the house for them and meet with them time and again.

Hopefully as the rates and the housing market loosens so will some of these guidelines in the HML programs. from talking to hard money funds especially those who operate in more than 10 states, and 5 years of experience with underwriting teams, I'd actually disagree and say new construction is preferred to rehab due to experience level to enter the market. there's BP lenders that will do 15% LTC with 1-2 new build experience.

I have some business and commercial real estate in Vancouver area.
