Just be aware of the for-profit clubs.

My name is Jaime, I go by the name Jay.

here is the situation. i left a really good paying job to take care of my 81 year old parents because my dad is chronically ill and my mom is almost there. i wont go into too much detail, but my sis doesnt help them. ill leave it at that. we have a person who comes twice a week to help with cleaning and other household tasks. i carry the bulk of the weight cooking their meals, running errands, grocery shopping, picking up meds, and taking them to dr appointments. its a full time job. i get a small salary of $1000 a month from a care giver sub contractor for the VA. ive been paying my bills with what savings ive had, but only have a few months of funds left. i own a duplex. i have over 200k in equity. i live in texas and texas has weird laws about refi and heloc/heloans when the property is 4 units or less and owner occupied. i would rather not sell, but if thats my only option i will have to at some point.does anyone have any advice or possibly be able to point me to lenders who might be able to work with my situation?

We have renovated 44 units using personal credit in the last 8 years.

The first goal we have set is to 20 doors.

I learned the hard way that properties don’t pay rent—tenants do.

My expertise spans residential construction, and I recently started my own virtual residential construction consulting business to share my knowledge and help others succeed in the industry.I’ve successfully flipped multiple homes and am now looking to expand my investments in long-term rental properties.

Practice makes perfect, and stay curious for success in the real estate investing world.Good luck!
