In today's competitive real estate market, how do you ensure your fix-and-flip projects stay on track?

I only lend to real estate investors. 

Looking forward to a true real estate journey toward financial independence.

I would also suggest reviewing credentials...50% of the PM firms in the city are not licensed brokers or agents affiliated with brokers....and most of the agents that claim to manage are focused on residential sales...not a great fit.

I am an aspiring real estate investor wanting to connect and learn.

@Jared Carpenter, I am looking for brokers and agents first and foremost to learn more about the neighborhoods and seeing how the market is to see if it is aligned with the cashflow I am looking for. 

After months of being told to wait(Issue started in April 2024) by rent redi, I finally found an agent that would escalate it to their backend payment processor(Propay). 

Alternatively, once the existing tenant is out, you can lease at market rate.The real challenge of "non-landlord friendly" areas in the form of: your ability to adjust their rent from one lease term to the next, rent control issues that would limit your ability to ever push rent increases over time, any mandates on required renewal options for existing tenants (typically come with rent control measures) and the ease and speed with which evictions are processed. 

It seems like another option here would be some type of 'life estate' type arrangement....instead of death it would be kids being a certain age.If for example you could buy sub2, and pay the husband $550K now.

Private lenders are a key way to invest in real estate.
