Hey Cameron, for experienced investors I can lend up to 100% of the purchase and rehab costs on 1-4 unit properties.

We managed over half of the purchase price in cash and then the remainder was held as a 3 year seller's note.

Taking a 15 year mortgage will hemorrhage your debt to income ratio and make it difficult to qualify for more home purchases in the future. 

Dear BP community, I am currently evaluating a property for purchase, and the listed bedroom/bathroom (s) count does not match with the county records.

I think if you just attend any group, you'll find investors that purchase remote and local and you'll be able to learn.

., allowing investors to purchase properties at a fraction of the cost compared to cities like New York, Los Angeles, or Chicago.

I’ve been a member since November of 2024 and my review of Rent to Retirement was based on my experience purchasing a rental from out of state which went very well compared to other experiences I’ve had to go through.

@Rosette PooleRecommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

I'm looking at monthly cost to seller vs. anticipated rental income, purchase price relevant to the ARV of the area and interest rate, balloon, etc.

I've helped a lot of investors in your area, and I find that many of them end up purchasing rentals in the Central Valley for the very reason you mentioned.
