There is always higher risk when operating with hard money, so you'll want to make sure that you buy a solid deal, in a good neighborhood, and have a plan for rehab and exit strategy.

If you or anybody you know is selling a property in this area that fits that description I will pay you $1000 for any single family homes I close on.

Your experience in project management will definitely help you in real estate especially if you plan on doing any renovations!

Plus, with all the property, I plan to land hack and add some value (glamping anyone?

Please keep in mind that I plan to rent to college students and the free unit is about 2,000 sqft:- I went to transfer utilities and the past owners have a balance.

1. plan for a 10% dip in values & run your numbers that way. 2. check out jamil damji's book on wholesaling, and use the parts about all the different ways to find good, cheap deals.3.

Sounds like a plan @Chrishayna Guyton! 

Try looking into zillow/Redfin and see what your potential rents you can get near the neighborhood by filtering the bedrooms/bathrooms of the intentional property that you are planning to buy.

To mitigate this, I've devised a plan that involves leveraging my primary residence.I've been residing in my current home for the past five years, which I secured at a very favorable interest rate.

Plan ahead if you buy in a seasonal area.
