I've committed myself to being a full-time real estate investor, private money broker and real estate consultant!

Private Money.

What is you guys best ways to find true private lenders not "brokers". 

I do potentially have access to private money if needed, and a 401(k).

Hi @James Heller I am fully renovating 2 of my units on a 4plex I have in Golden Hill...feel free to reach out and send me a private message if you need assistance and contacts....You can get cabinets and prefab quartz countertops pretty inexpensive and refacing is usually more expensive, I've found.  

Firstly, regarding the location, I understand that exact location details can be helpful for some investors, but it's my personal preference to keep that information private for now.

The ones I manage total to 20 bedrooms.These rooms rent for between $125 to $225 per week depending on room size and amenities in the room (beyond basic amenities may include: Desk, Tv, private entry, tenant controlled AC, additional storage).This month after padsplit takes their 14.25% cut of the revenue I am recieving, from the units I own, $15,230 from 3 homes.

If you want to discuss more you can always send me a private message but so far I don't see any negatives with purchasing the multi-family.

Many are private owners just subsidizing their mortgage or they would not be able to afford the house without renting it out much of the season.

Hard Money and Private Money How did you add value to the deal?
