Hello BiggerPockets community,I am new to real estate investing and we now have 3 properties and accelerating. 

My name is Andres Padilla, and I specialize in buying real estate properties for short-term leasing, long-term leasing, and property flipping.

To be a reliable and successful Private Money Lender, focus on building strong relationships with borrowers and real estate professionals, thoroughly assess each investment opportunity by conducting due diligence on the property and the borrower's financial background, and establish clear lending criteria to mitigate risk.

I'm in the process of selling a house in Denver and managed to get it under contract.The buyers had it meth tested and it came up positive!

You might have done this already but maybe calling some agents there or finding property management companies in that area? 

Banks gonna want you to plug in a management fee. 

He created lot of issues saying mold in the property recently.

They have utilized a number of financing approaches including: Minnesota Housing Finance Agency Tax Credits, Conventional, Grants through Duluth Economic Development Authority (DEDA), Duluth Housing & Redevelopment Authority (HRA) Assistance.Sharon Brown with Duluth's Life Safety office is a great resource as well when dealing with blighted properties.

You really need a training wheels type property to get moving & learn the business.

I primarily deal with single-family homes for investors looking to short-term or long-term rent, while my husband has a property flipping business.
