It's all money back guarantee, blah, blah, blah.

Real estate can appreciate overseas but you could still lose money based on currency exchange rates and strength.

It's a great way to increase your net worth and these loans can also be used to pull cash out of a property as it appreciates allowing you to reinvest money into new deals.Happy to connect to discuss further.

Is there still opportunity for owners who want to make money with AirBnB?

I won't be able to get my money out of it any other way.

So if you pay taxes you are making money and that’s a good thing. 

Mainly, because structural issues can be a complete black hole of money, time, effort--and it can be very difficult (and costly) to anticipate just how much money, time, and effort they'll consume.First, you'll need to figure out what's causing the structural issues--it could be settlement at the footers caused by ground water, it could be wood rot or termites in a beam, it could be masonry degradation caused by water coming off the roof, it could be improper drainage of the roof, it could be tree roots degrading the foundation, it could be a plumber who cut out a critical joist to install a line 20 years ago, it could be improper construction, it could be any or all of those things, and it could be any number of other potential causes.

This house currently has no renter though they are actively looking to put one in the home.House 5. rents for $725/m the loan will cost me $13,000 as a down payment and $6,000 closing costs, and should cash flow approx $275/m after mortgage payment are made.House 6. rents for $725/m the loan will cost me $14,000 as a down payment and $6,000 closing costs, and should cash flow approx $250/m after mortgage payment are made.To be able to make this down payment I have the option to:HELOC my current home which cost me about $850/m in repayments OR I can find a hard money lender who would be interested in working with me, I am currently putting together a hard money lender proposal to show a couple family members that would basically look like this: No repayment in the first 12 months, all income going into an account to allow for repairs and emergencies, after that taking the cash flow and splitting it 75/25 to the lender paying it off in approximately 13 years, sooner if we can make extra payments on it and giving the lender an 8% return on his money(about .5% less than what I was quoted for my HELOC).ORI can potentially do a deal with my brother who is also looking to get into real estate and we split the properties 3 a piece.These properties are right outside of a military base in a low income city but have done well for the family currently owning them with consistent long term renters in them.I am looking for any advice as to whether or not this is a deal worth pursuing.

Can you purchase a property with a Hard Money loan and then refinance into a different type of loan to have a lower interest rate?

Hard money can help do acquisition + construction.
