I have also looked into borrowing for a down payment whether its from a personal loan, hard money lender, family, credit card cash advances, etc.Are there any recommended tips, products, BP webinars/podcasts that address this kind of situation?

Did not do the program as I'm not an agent but I can vouch for Jenifer's character and I know she stands behind her product!

David Greene covered the topic on one of the latest podcasts as well confirming that 6 months is a traditional answer for a lot of lenders, but isn't a hard and fast rule, therefore I need to continue to search.Your 75% comment is interesting because many of the HML websites I have been on are all marketing their products around a % of purchase price plus rehab, not starting at 75% of ARV which might (ideally will) cover the entire purchase price.

In my opinion (in the Chicagoland suburbs) any SFH below $250K is a very very hot product and this type of photography isn't necessary to bring buyers to your flip.

That is the plan anyway but that is still at least 6 months before it will be ready for production.

Getting all of your money back out on this market is not realistic, at least in our market.You should expect to leave 5-20% in the deal.However… you end up with less than 25% down, a fully refurbished unit, and a top of the line product for tenants.This strategy allows you to control your two most variable cost, maintenance, and CapEx.Personally my focus on a BRRR is beat the down payment market by 5-15% and have a fully updated unit I won’t have any work to do on for 5-7 years.All the people that want to turn 40K over and over and over and finance rehabs are going to spend a lot of time looking and not a lot of time doing.

There are also more favorable loan programs with low-money down, down payment assistance, and no PMI.You can eventually scale into MF stuff but it is the most competitive product and might only be worth it if you are syndicating and have investors who require a lower yield.My townhome units have a way better yield than any multi-family units I have seen.

Any home warranty you'll buy will calculate the age of your major expenses and cost you the price of the products you're looking to replace.
