My point is that focus, hard work, integrity, dogged determination, and results will bring you success.

If you look at a hard money comparison, it looks one way.  

Normally a duplex in the hood would not cost that much or rent for that much so it’s hard to compare .it looks like you did your analysis correctly .

I said this, because I think I read in some place that when you are new or is your first property it is very hard to get a mortgage on an LLC, so it is easier to buy the property under my name, and after that make the transfer to an LLC. 

I think you would have a hard time getting favorable loan terms on this property. 

So make bad pictures as hard for an appraiser to take as you can.When you meet the appraiser, be wearing the most expensive duds you own and be driving the most expensive car you can rent.

Flipping is hard now because we don't really have bidding wars for finished homes anymore. 

I work for a builder during the day but I would love to get into “wholesale”I’ve have found investors (and I’m open to more) However, I’m having a hard time finding Title companies that are investor friendly.

@Darryl JacksonHow much you need can depend on many factors , the purchase price of the home , the rehab costs etc.Also if you are going to pay all cash or leverage ( hard money or private money loans etc ) If you don’t own your own home I’d suggest doing a live in flip or house hack as you can take advantage of low money down loans like an FHA loan for 3.5%Many people have used this as a way to start out and gain equity that they then use for other deals .It’s possible to do deals without your own money if you do a joint venture type deal but could be hard to find someone to partner without experience, might have to give up more than half the profit but still better than no deal .

Would a hard cash loan be worth it to wipe the credit cards out with?
