Hello Everyone,My name is Cameron Barnett and I just moved back to Raleigh to be closer to family.I just wanted to reach out and introduce myself and what I plan to do locally.I'm primarily investing in single-family fix and flip properties in Wake County and I've just started networking here since moving back last week and want to start the ground running.I'm always looking to expand my network and build mutually beneficial relationships and help out as much as I can.MY property acquisition budget is $650k and can buy and start multiple properties/projects at the same time as long as the numbers are right.I have tons of experience in real estate, construction , and business and love networking and meeting new people.There are times I'm too busy to take on more projects and can send them to other investors as I develop my portfolio here.Have a Merry Christmas and a Very Prosperous New Years!

I am looking at a hard lender right now to help me flip a few houses to pay off the revolving debt and then get that 20% down so I can start building my portfolio.

You can read in detail about the whole experience in my book Portfolio Loans: Scaling your Real Estate Investments, available on Amazon or through the link in my bio.          

Real estate is a get rich slow process get the job get on your feet and keep building your portfolio.

By making cash offers using your HELOC you can usually get steep discounts that would allow you to implement the BRRRR strategy by buying cash with the HELOC, building some equity with a rehab and/or buying below market then refinance out and expand your portfolio.

Many of my assets are wound up in my portfolio which is pretty well leveraged right now.

My intent is all long term but systematic exit to optimize portfolio. 1) Less then 12 months ... short terms (maximize opex)2) More then 12 months ... long terms (maximize opex)3) More then 9 months. .. 1031 as portfolio optimization 4) Opportunity zone using any gain from previous 180 days (looks like this is what you are asking)The whole world can talk about benefits of buying/investing is Qualified Opportunity zone but as of now not sure i have seen anyone yet (again my world is tiny ) who could give direction on beyond filing Form 8996  such as below1) How to create /maintain QOF  2) How to manage cash within QOF for rehab/purchase 3) How to brings investors in/out of QOF ..

I just got a portfolio loan renewed at 5.75% fixed for only 3 years which was before the recent interest rate went up so it would probably be more now.

If you'd like/haven't already, I recommend checking out Brandon Turner's book, No and Low Money down to get some good and creative ideas on utilizing cash flow wisely to expand your portfolio with minimal cash used. 

I’m currently looking to add to my portfolio ASAP!
