My suggestion is it is best to start developing relationships with the lending officers at smaller banks now so when you really do need them you are ready to rock and roll.Take massive action and I'll see you at the top!

Can anyone offer any advice, specific to the Little Rock Arkansas area, with hard/private money lenders, and strategies for finding great properties? 

Thanks for the help, you guys ROCK!

I.e. rock hill, concord, matthews etc.the address for the event tomorrow is Event Location: Hilton HotelAddress: 5624 Westpark DriveDirections: I-77 & Tyvola Rd.Exact location of the general meeting every Third Thursday of the month. let me know if you have any more questions. always glad to help.

This can produce added benefits for the landlord; the longer the term can translate into a happier tenant, which has many positive benefits, such as a better payer and the property receiving better treatment.Are you concerned about being “stuck” with an undesirable tenant?

That's 64 more square feet of framing, insulation, drywall, siding, paint, etc.Also, dimensional lumber is produced in two-foot lengths and panel goods are four-foot wide... most efficient use of materials will use wall and floor dimensions that are equally divisible in these increments.The boxes ain't always pretty, but they are more cost effective!

I understand it's all about the numbers and comparing the would be deals to give a definitve answer, and obviously it makes more sense to go with the option that produces more proft.  

It's not hard (but is extra work as I end up producing a unique letter per offer) to temporarily transfer balances around to produce a proof of funds letter close to the asking price, but I'm looking to streamline where I can.

If you have found a rock solid deal with lots of value creation opportunities, getting buy-in from potential partners will be easy.

If the tenant can not produce a copy of the lease then the agreement is treated like a month to month and the 90 day rule from the Tenant Act applies.
