What is frustrating is that hard money lenders are becoming just like banks with their processes as well. 

I'm a real estate agent and investor. 

A real estate developer rented out my family’s backyard and put up scaffolding to build a building complex in Queens, New York.The developer and my family signed a contract allowing them to use the backyard.

I am in the market for a custodian for a self-directed IRA for real estate investing.

I'm Patricia, a private money lender based in Tennessee.

How do I approach a potential buyer/real estate investor or as they refer to them "cash buyers"?

I know that this is how most money is made in real estate by trying to force equity into the property, so I hope to be able to have time for it one day soon.  

DSCR loans focus on property income, need more upfront money, and work well for quick fix-and-flip projects.

Put simply, property management is a tough business and margins are small ($1,000-$1,500 annually per home)... managing contractors is difficult but the money is much bigger and much faster ($1,000-$5,000 in just a few months)... and selling turn-keys can yield $5k-$20k.

Hey Jackson,As far as most of my investors, most of them use cash or various hard money lenders.
