I would only go this route if you can't qualify for a regular conventional mortgage or if you don't have someone you can privately lend from.

Feel free to private message me!

Private lenders are the true way to go. 

Coming up on my 60 birthday, so I would like to explore more passive investment options including (1) Hard Money Lending, (2) Private Money Lending, (3) Buying and Selling Notes, (4) Syndication or even, (5) Tax Lien Certificates. 

Both a survey and title search have revealed that the mobile home is on the property and has been detitled and joined with the property.

According to the post it's a private Lender

Just private message me.

Time is of the essence here most especially when you are competing with private buyers on a good neighborhood.

If you can find private lenders who have some money and will lend it for around 7-10% interest with no points, that makes sense to use up front (and then later refinance with a bank).

I am wondering what experienced investors/builders might think about the following investment scenarios (sort of passive income): Buy the right piece of land and build a five/six row of townhouses and rent them out (@1,500 sf/unit, maybe rent them @$1/sf or a bit more) Buy a beachfront property overseas and build a small resort (six luxury villas/bungalows) each with private plunge pool and stunning views (charge $350/$400/night)-option 1 is less risky than option 2 but rewards are considerably lower for option 1.
