They seem to have very competitive rates and are very responsive.I'm just doing due diligence before moving forward and wanted any input from the community.Thanks.

Seems like a very intriguing way of managing property and benefitting from increase NOI and ultimately property value.I am looking at a 3 family property that needs a ton of work (perhaps $75-100K, although I haven't done a deep dive on pricing yet).

My recommendation would be to get into the local REIA AZREIA.org they are one of the best in the country and you can learn tons and meet seem great contacts.I have looked at some of the 'flips' in scottsdale and in my opinion many of them are Subpar so if you produce a superior product than I would imagine that as long as you can find the right deal you will not have any problems.  

I'm in Los Angeles and stumbled upon 2 run down seemingly uninhabbited houses in a really nice area.

Unfortunately getting a hold of well contractor seems to be tougher than I thought.

I have caught the real estate bug and can't seem to read or learn enough!

I am thinking we should do those last as the non-recourse lenders seem to be the least picky about where the down payment comes from.There are 2 duplexes that we (3 way partnership) are planning on using commercial lending for.

I am switching to Houston or Dallas because the ROI there seems better than Las Vegas nowadays.

When I first interviewed(phone) with one of the owners everything looked great and communication didn't seem to be an issue.

I've read about what to ask when you find them, but I seem to be Google inept sometimes at trying to find them to get started
