I'm a business owner with investments in retail, media, and addiction treatment facilities.

I am a minority partner in 19 doors and an extreme minority investor in a fund of 54 doors. 

here is the situation. i left a really good paying job to take care of my 81 year old parents because my dad is chronically ill and my mom is almost there. i wont go into too much detail, but my sis doesnt help them. ill leave it at that. we have a person who comes twice a week to help with cleaning and other household tasks. i carry the bulk of the weight cooking their meals, running errands, grocery shopping, picking up meds, and taking them to dr appointments. its a full time job. i get a small salary of $1000 a month from a care giver sub contractor for the VA. ive been paying my bills with what savings ive had, but only have a few months of funds left. i own a duplex. i have over 200k in equity. i live in texas and texas has weird laws about refi and heloc/heloans when the property is 4 units or less and owner occupied. i would rather not sell, but if thats my only option i will have to at some point.does anyone have any advice or possibly be able to point me to lenders who might be able to work with my situation?

I have a STR in a resort community outside St Louis.

Can be profitable ,BUT, my experience as a hard money lender is that there are many companies operstimg in this field that aren’t very stable financially.  

I live in the city of NY and I am interested in deciding where to make my first investment since the markets that interest me are Providence RI, and Rochester NY.

You're running a "hotel", would you stay at your place or another house in the area? 

I'm willing to pay for the full year in advance.ME: I'm sorry, but we clearly said in our marketing that this third-floor apartment has a no-pet policy.

If you have your down payment ready and are looking into commercial real estate, long-term rentals, short-term rentals, fix and flips, house hacking, BRRRR, or new construction, I'm here to assist you.

When I started back in 08/09 and did my first one, I set a goal of adding 3 houses a year.
