@Kim Puckett We use Matt Richardson with Southern Boys Landscaping for several projects.

Anagnost Investments would also be interested - we have financed a number of projects for them.

If you want to do short term rentals buy a cabin in pigeon forge and find a lender that will count projected income in favor of your DTI I've done it many times. 

Hence, it's taking longer for bigger developers to bring their juicy projects online. 

If you don't get rid of it that project you might continue to hurt you every month. 

@Michael Ray Aglibot What city are is your project located in?

I dove into my first project back in April.

So while we can speculate on the margins Zillow might make, we won't actually know until they release more information of how they are going to fund these projects, the path they will take for hiring work, and their overall flipping goal and holding periods. 

I have a track record of successful investments with both my commercial lender, and private lenders who are asking me for projects to place funds into.3.)

However, I am a member of several different companies organized as Limited Liability Companies (LLCs) where members invest in a project (Single Purpose Entity) or projects (like a real estate LTH company) jointly, similar to (but different than) what you may see in a syndication or investment club investment.
