I'm curious how people here built their team?

If you demolished inside and they see it you cannot get a standard HELOC you will need to go hard money as most lenders are going to tell you that any worker who stepped on the site can lien the property and HELOC's do not use a new full title report, they rely on the title report of the last sale (again like I started with if people DIY record after closing it's a problem). 

So, we're trying to find other ways to connect with people who are active in the city. 

I even had two people claim to be licensed in certain areas that in fact they were not and could not even pull a permit... not to mention they were not even properly credentialed for major things like electrical and plumbing. 

(Horsebnb.com)Looking for additional income sources AND the fun people I think this would attract. 

I am excited to connect with as many people as possible and committed to adding value to this industry. 

Life is too short and real estate investing is not worth it for a lot of people, as it is stressful and can be very expensive.

Finding people you can TRUST to build your Core 4!

Most people are not willing to do this but if you're scrappy you can pay wildly different prices for the exact same thing. 

While this is true, I think most people forget there are two components to refinance.
