Many times it's best to be stealthy and testing the waters, making a reasonable amount of profit in a community than walking in and trying to pull out 35% profit...I guarantee you people in the business will be watching you and the first thought will be that you pulled a fast one....just human nature, IMO.

Several ways to line up funding.FInance it and sell the note.Kiss the note from the private lender (guarantee it)Put an investor pool together, spread the risk.Find investors who sell their credit to your buyer.Narrow your idea down, be more specific and we can see what we can dream up....
