@Guillermo PerezPositives:- Equity Built: You now have $70K in equity, which is a solid result for your first deal.Cash Flow Potential: If the property rents well and covers your debt service while providing some cash flow, that’s a win.- Experience: You’ve successfully navigated a purchase, rehab, and refinance, which are the core components of BRRRR.Considerations: - Budget Overrun: Being $27K over budget highlights the importance of tighter cost estimates and contingencies.

hard money is typically: some amount down + points to get the loan + interest to service itso if purchase price is $325K, you might be able to get 10-15% down from your own cash + the HML for the restit's not clear from your post what is going where

@Charles Kao I believe he means attorney & Title Services that are familiar with non traditional or creative Transfers or Sales of property that don't include Banks.

Owners mistakenly ASSUME all PMCs offer the exact SAME SERVICES and PERFORM those services EXACTLY THE SAME WAY, so price is the only differentiator – and they often select the first PMC they call!

What seems to be your case - request a capital call to cover debt service for the next year "hoping" rates go down.

Thank You for your service.  

If you’re placing a new property into service, you can discuss cost segregation studies.

At about half of my properties I provide quarterly exterior pest control services.

I hired Jenny Yi to design our latest STR in person, she demanded that I pay the full amount of her services upfront, $7,500, which I thought was strange as we are used to paying half upfront and half once it's completed, but proceeded anyway because a couple of people recommended her.

After that is returned, I do a background check through Transunion or a similar service.
