Are you looking to combine both your first mortgage on a rental property you own with a purchase of a new rental property where you are assuming the note? 

Hi all, I want to purchase a duplex to start my travel hacking journey.  

Hey Travis, It is much harder to obtain hard money financing when you already own the property rather than purchasing it.

For investors, making informed purchasing decisions and gaining a deep understanding of the market is essential though.

Purchase price: $74,000 Cash invested: $30,000 Beautifully renovated 4-bedroom split-level home that features a new galley style kitchen with 42" soft close cabinets, stainless steel appliances, recessed lights, updated baths with modern vanities and fixtures, large living room that leads to separate dining room off kitchen, three spacious bedrooms on 2nd level with modern decor, large lower-level family room with ceramic tile flooring with well-placed laundry cove, and recently laid sod in front and rear of property.

So, does a 3rd party purchase the property and the buyer pays the 3rd party?
