We've done over 200 transactions this year alone (and 200 last year... yes, a huge uptick in demand!).

Stable demand, in retiree market - yes, but also in several other segments: professional working remotely, new Americans.

Indianapolis and surrounding areas often offer strong rental demand and reasonable property prices, so you’re definitely looking in the right place.For neighborhoods in Indianapolis, I’d suggest checking out areas like Fountain Square, Bates-Hendricks, and Irvington.

We have done it both ways where we fund purchase and they cover rehab but if the individual is less experienced we do not do it that way, we have them put more money into the deal from the start and fund the draws, reason why is we also had a deal where the person said they would do this and never did anything and property sat and loan matured and it was a pain.Just recognize you will still not get 100% financing for the purchase, so you are putting money in up front.
