I am looking at a three unit property near me that I saw listed on auction.com and also in a foreclosure email I get regularly. 

They receive potential deals on a regular basis and use their days in evaluating those deals, as well as the performance of past deals they have invested in.For active investors/syndicators, the day to day life is much different.

It appears that it would be easier to move to your next project, and eliminate the red tape and hoops from regular banks, and eliminate the hard money guys.Has anyone used this strategy, and do you recommend any unsecured sources?   

On top of that I have regular traffic built from having been such a resource for tenants, so people looking for a place to lease just know to come look on my website, because we do literally hundreds of tenant placements every year.

Some types of construction require more regular maintenance than others etc.

For awhile Philadelphia was the best kept secret for a lot of NY investors but as of the last few years there has been a ton of NY money being dumped into philly, especially now because of the Rent control laws that passed here, but there are still deals out there. snap shot of philly - Steady population growth yr over yr - Steady job growth yr over yr - Diverse economy  ( top 3 health care, education & tourism )- Location...  2hrs from NYC "financial hub of the country" &  2(1/2) from Washington DC " the political of hub of the country.

It all started with health insurance when I quit my W2 job, I was on Cobra for 18 months, and then I had to get my own.

A Health savings account is even better and of course the CESAs are also great for the tax advantages 

You can't beat the health insurance for your family.

They will be an integral member of your team if you can’t be at the property on a regular basis
