Nicholas Z. Getting started with private money lending
2 August 2020 | 8 replies
Hi everyone,After several false starts in my real estate investing journey, I feel like I’m finally educated enough to give it another try.Due to my current situation (dealing with health issues and primary source of income being disability), I don’t have the energy to do a lot of the legwork necessary to succeed in buying/evaluating/managing properties nor the income for (more) conventional loans.I do, however, have access to capital thanks to managing my money well before my health changed.

S Harper Showing occupied property during Covid - when physical walk thru?
7 August 2020 | 1 reply
Having someone walk through and tell me that they wanted something completely different - ex. with an en suite - after they have seen all of the pictures and descriptions was enough of a pain before the elevated health concerns was bad enough (and for some reason I get a lot of that with this little 1970s house every time it's on the market).
