You don’t want to be two months down the road and still shopping for towels, which we’ve seen happen every time someone who hasn’t designed hundreds of rentals says “I can do it for less”.

Your best bet is likely going to be to get a lender that does both hard money for BRRRR purchases and the refinance loans as well (all in one shop). 

Why did the other group close up shop?  

I have a friend who runs a dive equipment shop and he puts all his computers as business expenses because he manages his inventory and orders through the computers.

Let me know and we can grab coffee sometime! 

Does it work to meet around 9:00am sometime next week for coffee?

@John Fedro has done it several times and he has really proved to be a first class source of answers and encouragement as we set up shop.

Together we are a 1 stop shop and a rarity due to our experience in the real estate business.

Start shopping for that long term financing now to know who has the shortest seasoning period and all of their qualification processes so you know whether or not you'd qualify before to get into any deals with a HML  Do not estimate your ARV on a deal.

Tell them how much you want to help them stage their houses, clean their listings, create handwritten notes for clients, get their coffee, drive around with them doing errands, run their social media accounts, grow with them, and offer suggestions and ideas with a younger/fresh outlook.
