Dakota Mivshek Hard Money Lending - Current Opportunity, need advice
20 January 2017 | 10 replies
Not likely - there are a handful of issues, here are a few:Lender can't get title insurance on a project that is currently under constructionBuyer can't get title insurance for a project currently under construction *I say can't but, maybe can with a lot of paper work, bonds, lien waivers, etc.Too much risk in knowing if the builder can finish if already in troubleThe lender for the builder isn't going to release units without some principal reduction, unless building with cash.Your father would be much better off supplying a loan and in return getting the units - although there is a large amount of risk here based on the builders ability to finish.If the project is 12-18 months from completion, it cant be that far along and the builder is already hurting - that is bad news.

Much of my experience has told me that high levels of customer service, extended renewals from tenants, increase in rental rates, cost reduction in minimizing the service calls.... come from the intimate experience of doing some of these things right as the landlord.No property manager has the vested interest in nurturing your customer relationships with your tenant and watching over your investment with a long-term perspective like you do.
Bryan P. Mountain Cabin versus Beach Condo
30 January 2014 | 7 replies
@Bryan P.As for Homepath properties, I've sold a number of them (I'm licensed in three states).In Texas, where I've sold most of them, they were good deals and many of the investors I worked with were able to buy them using HMLs and there was enough capital gains after repairs that they could refinance the deal and essentially end up with ZERO out of pocket, which equivocates to infinite returns.However, in Florida, most of the Homepath properties are seriously overpriced and have to sit on the market for a while, with price reduction after price reduction before it's work seriously considering.Overall, Homepath seems to be very "area specific" as to if it's a good deal or not.

It also pisses some people off when they learn that some cases of "identity theft" are actually identity confusion on the part of the credit bureaus.Debt Strategies addresses Debt Acceleration, Debt "Snowball"-ing (something promoted by Dave Ramsey and approved by the JD/CPA you saw in that presentation, Mark Kohler) and Debt Reduction (without bankruptcy).
