You need to master real estate before lending in real estate, sounds like you may not be there yet.The website you mentioned is following the law, private or individual lenders may not charge pre-paid interest (points) or loan fees, you would need to be a registered lender in your state, in the business of lending, I doubt you want to go there.Best is to find a mortgage broker or established lender and work with them.

Hello, all,i'm currently learning about short term rental investment and i need to be around like-minded individuals who have done deals already or are also starting out so I can build a network and take action.

The numbers worked and after a lot of internal debate, I had to logic myself into a decision: If I bought these 2, I was going to eventually refi and use that money to buy more SFHs anyway BUT the price on these 6 as a package was way better than I'd get in another year on an individual SFH.I was getting a Costco-sized discount for buying in bulk and instead of shying away from the chance, I pooled together the money from friends, family, a HELOC, etc. and went for it.

For the most part, those individuals were provided assistance (education) so they could better handle their money and financial responsibilities.

I use the TransUnion my smart move screening and I think it works well but I look at all the pieces individually and pay little attention to the score.

Currently have found an individual who may be interested in selling off his entire portfolio that includes all mobile homes.

We are now listing them individually at about 20k-25k each.

Do you recommend a big property management company or finding an individual?

Our portfolio has scaled up to 3 properties we will add 1-2 annually, both individually and through partnerships.

Duplexes compared to these would sell individually for 150k-240k each within a 10-15mile stretch from where these are located.
