It is the Service Industry (restaurant, nails, dry cleaners, small retail shops, gyms, elective health care etc) that has been severely impacted.  

The hard money lender is going to ask you for a collateral before they give you a chunk of cash and he is also gonna ask you to have skin in the game 20% of the value of the house at least.

This 'official' change is going to bring out of town investors focus, and I have the feeling that my options are going to dry up quickly.

Yes it costs a little more than a conventional but the numbers still work well.The Corning duplex market dried up a bit going into winter but there will be more inventory this year.

If you are a tenant looking for assistance, click the links above.We have to assume that the $25 Billion will dry up quickly.

@Maureen Santibañez I don’t come on here often anymore, but it never fails that someone want to buy property without having any skin in the game.

Learn scripts, study the market, grow thick skin, and network with as many people as you can.

My main point is that if the gov wants to stop evictions they should pay me and then collect vs leaving the landlords high and dry.  

-PBFirst if you are an accredited investor you will have access to a much larger pool of funds that generally have much better investor terms, and many of the sponsors have much more experience, more skin in the game, etc.

Also, you don’t have a property lined up yet, so they could be hesitant to take you seriously.Once you have a property you’re under contract for, that might show them that you have more skin in the game.
