I'm not banking on that much super appreciation on my East Sac house hack, but still have high hopes for my Oak Park properties.This could change the longer the Bay Area housing market stays hotter.

Perhaps I'm reading a little too much in what you wrote, but I see a bit of a chip on that shoulder.

So 6 to 8 or 9 is not out the question for SOCAL deals.. if this was or is a Vetted blue chip company they do have a nice program for short term funds.. but like has been mentioned above you really need to know what security or lack thereof your getting.. as you know nothing is better than first position whole notes for safety and security. 

We are currently completing our first flip in Elmwood/Oak Cliff.

Hi - We are moving out of our 2/1 paid for house to a home with mortgage in Oak Cliff, Dallas, a very hot area experiencing gentrification and rapidly climbing real estate prices.

Selling off inferior properties to pay off debt on "Blue Chip" high quality assets that produce steady income to support your lifestyle.  

We could organize beagles, or donuts, coffee and/ juice and all chip in to cover the cost?

I am in Chicago (and Oak Park), too.  

Hello everyone! My name is Ariel and although I've been a member of Bigger Pockets for a little while,  I've only recently started lurking and delving into real estate investing. Because a lot of the  real estate mark...

I've been chipping away for 4 years with no luck.
