As a broker, I'm always trying to find the best deal for the specific client and property.If you are looking for local private money lenders, your local real estate investment groups might have some leads for you as well.Most institutional private lenders are going to need an appraisal/valuation of the property, and permits to be issued for the construction of the building (if your area requires it). 

I specifically recommend investing in the Dallas/Ft.

It seems like it is ran similar to section 8 housing with vouchers and specific property requirements. 

I don't know specific websites otherwise - it's been a while. 3. 

Now the really specific part is that it is in a retirement community, if anyone can share both negative and positives of renting there, it would be greatly appreciated.

What specifically do you need help with for a fix and flip? 

Specifically 1) what is the total market share available (especially since you want to stay in that market not grow into others) 2) who makes up how much of that market share? 

I'm happy to hear any suggestions you have around specific neighborhoods to look in.

It is landlord-friendly, and specific pockets have gone upwards of 2-4x in the last 5-10 years.

The question is just how beneficial it'll be based on the property and your specific circumstances.
