How does one acquire financing for a development project when I am a brand new developer?

I’m remodeling a house for rental and I’m debating if replace all carpet for hardwood floor, even on rooms and closets.

If we were to finance the cash house and then use it as the down for the other house we would then have a mortgage on 2.  

We develop and build Major brand limited service. 

I am doing a rehab on a house built in 2001. 

I have a house in BA being rented out,  to price is a set amount and that's what they shown in disbursement to me, however I got a copy on the current leasing agreement with the tenets and found it that they are charging tenets an additional fee for the appliances I provided,  as well as the pet fee,  both of which they are keeping, and if an appliance breaks or carpets are damaged,  i have to replace them... is this legal?

Would you be interested in a house hack type of property?

That just means the rest of the house will be smaller.

There are exceptions though like you could buy a dilapidated colonial house in Merida and rehab it.

Certainly this is not the case for everyone but a cautionary tale nonetheless-especially being out of State.My CPA is referring this investor to me because he knows I like the Lansing, MI area where prices are similar but taxes are lower, labor cost lower, and lots of economic development because it is the State capital.To your success!
