I also work full time for New Gen Products as the head of the shipping department and will soon be moving into Sales.

Hard money is tricky right now, some aren't offering their long-term products right now so keep that in mind during your search.

I have personally found that Real-Estate backed Private Notes / Loans are the most secure way to invest your funds for any duration you so choose, at an interest rate WAY better than the banks, or bonds, with monthly "dividends" and still secured by an actual physical asset!

You have to make sure you have a good team set up if you physically cannot be at the property to watch over it.

There is no such thing as a good deal, just a good deal for you.Your criteria should be related to the physical attributes of the property and the location, not your return criteria.

They are available to small businesses directly affected by the COVID-19, or that offer services directly related to these businesses.Applicants must have good credit history, the ability to repay and be physically located in disaster areas (economic nexus does not suffice).

While this agreement was focused first on Canada, the US, and Mexico, so many trade agreements have realized that "Giant Sucking Sound" Ross Perot warned us about.Not that I am working for a political discussion, but facts are, because of our vast trade agreements, we no longer manufacture or grow so much that once made the US the most productive economy in the world.

I fix things, do upgrades and do my best to bring new tenants into the building who will follow the rules and not cause disruption to the other tenants.We've all noticed recently the media (in general as well as social media) seems to enjoy giving attention to the bad landlords (mainly the harsh letters some landlords are mailing to tenants) and that certainly isn't productive however the media/social media often tends to enjoy broadcasting negativity. 

Additionally, if you are going to finance the property you will have a personal guarantee either way, and often taking title and financing in your name versus LLC can save you on interest expense.If you need to raise money or have a partner, then an LLC becomes much more important, if you have your own cash, it is optional.As mentioned, the type of product you are looking at can help us provide you with more assistance. 

Some economists say the decline in gross domestic product this year could rival the worst years of the Great Depression."
