We are actively investing in the Champaign market, selling an inheritance property in Central Florida and trying to figure out what to do with our long term lease in Phoenix, AZ that is currently costing us a few $100 vs. cash flowing :) Excited to meet others, would love to know of any in person meet ups in southern/central Illinois. happy to be here!

Just started, selling off market fixer uppers to investors in SoCal.

What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

Thanks in advance. 

In 2021, we built a home in Lake County, FL for $180K, that same home today costs $250K to build.Why are home prices so high?

Yeah I definitely interested in networking with people in my area doing the same things. 

I currently have $150K equity in my current home and $300K cash on hand.

I'm a business owner with investments in retail, media, and addiction treatment facilities.

I have a STR in a resort community outside St Louis.

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?
