We have a security cam in the entryway.

I have roughly 30% to put down and still need to secure financing if I end up moving forward so I was wanting to get some suggestions on where a good place to look for financing would be and also any other advice that you think might help.

I've got the feeling that that there is a distinction between hard money lenders and private money lenders.    

I only have one private money investor who invested once, and I've been BRRRing with that money to get this far. 

One example and there are many, would be a private money lender with a first lien position. 

We have been investing in that area for the last 7 years and I have talked to a lot of UNT student that live even in the Corinth, Lake Dallas, Cross Roads, Little Elm area.UNT housing authority (can't reca the dept name at the moment) is actually on record as renting out local private housing to supplement its dorms...the net effect of that could be considered close to rent control...a situation that we originally considered but backed off after looking at the economic growth around the campus and true demographic we wanted to target.

Just depends on how bad it is at purchase (i.e. how much deferred maintenance, what your renovation plan is, etc.).Something else to keep in mind is that if the occupancy rate dips below a certain level (85% to 90%), you cannot qualify for certain loan programs and will have to secure a riskier bridge loan.

, security cameras, moisture sensors etc might pay off) a quick call to your insurance agent to ask for a list of things that will reduce your premium is usually worthwhile.
