Nothing ruins your chances then to come up with bogus numbers without strong back ups.

Hey Neil - Call me when you get a chance.

@John Moore Any chance you can be more specific?

We're at the start of the RE cycle and I believe your chances of significant appreciation are very high.

I also have direct sales experience, which gave me a chance to get to know some neighborhoods better than I would have liked to!

If you get the chance to post a profile pic, it will help you connect with more people.Also, be sure to write down your "why" before you get in too deep.

If you get a chance, checkout the BiggerPockets podcasts and the guide for new investors.

I have 4 reo condos under contract, not a snowballs chance in hell, of being financed conventional.

Have you had a chance to check out the Atlanta REIA yet?

But, if I include it in my HM loan, it adds another 12k onto my losses, and I have to deal with the invoice clearance and inspection procedure to get my rehab funds.If I partner with someone who puts in the rehab funds up front, I can actually save myself some money by utilizing a crew that I normally couldn't afford using the HML system, increasing my chance of making this flip work the way I want, and allowing me to utilize my own funds as a safety net and/or start another flip.Kind of a great deal, huh?
