A wealthy individual, a group of wealthy individuals, or a hedge fund is lending money, private money to strangers for the purposes of buying distressed, fixing the asset up, and either exiting through sale or refi.Just keep in mind t he relationship between maturity and interest rate. 

It is mid year and this tenants mom (co-signer) wrote the following note;I am writing to formally request the early termination of my child's lease at location in San Jose due to a medical illness that renders him unable to continue attending college.

Mind you, I pulled out of the lending space back in '20.

Start by serving proper notice of the management change and request payment details.

I'd recommend talking to local investors of your prospective cities to get positive and negative feedback, someone who isn't trying to sell you anything.Do you mind sharing how much capital you have to invest in?  

Please keep in mind investors, not every deal that you place under contract will close - that's just the nature of the beast when it comes to investing. 

I don’t mind paying those fees if I can build a solid, long lasting business quickly.I know I can piece together all these things by attending my local REI meetings and making connections there.

@Austin Williams yes you can do a 100% cash out refi on your existing home with a VA loan, but keep in mind that you would need to finance it as a primary residence, which resets the 1 year clock that you need to occupy the property.

We are coming down to get a feel for some neighborhoods we've been looking at moving too and don't really have too much planned so I thought it would be a great time to connect with some lenders, investors, contractors, and liked mind individuals while I'm there!
