I believe that FUNDRISE uses leveraging extensively but it has been awhile since I have reviewed their investments. 

I also have a lender in the 7%-9%-range for commercial properties where they don't look at income or taxes and frankly don't care about the cash-flow if the loan amount is under $500k.Some will have balloon payments, others won't.

It was in a good area and that’s what I cared about most initially.

Needless to say, I messed a lot of things up.Some things I know for next time:-make sure to include security deposits credit and prorated rent credit in the purchase contract-make sure to keep all addendums that may be needed saved on computer for quick access-get all the necessary documentation for rehab funding from the contractor before going into contract on the property (my lender needed his insurance, workers comp, experience, etc. and I was not able to get rehab funded in the loan because the contractor would not send this to me and it was too late for me to find another contractor)-check that title has gotten the documents correct before they are sent over to the seller-take pictures of the house during the walkthrough for insurance purposes-check for flood zone early on -give yourself a realistic timeline for closing-check reviews on title company before choosing oneDoes anyone else have any recommendations? 

I'm at the point where I don't care if I take a pay cut by switching to flip homes.

No annual requirements on audits or reviews of financials (save money from hiring CPA consultants).

I worked as a service technician for more years than I care to remember and I can honestly say I never did find a problem that I didn't solve.

They do not “care” as long as the mortgage is under the borrower name.

Just curious, not challenging your statement but how does bankruptcy "demonstrates financial immaturity and risk" since: Bankruptcies resulting from unpaid medical bills will affect nearly 2 million people this year—making health care the No. 1 cause of such filings, and outpacing bankruptcies due to credit-card bills or unpaid mortgages, according to new data.

you can go to turnkey reviews and look at reviews of a hundred different TK companies in virtually all markets and there is live or for real inventory on the site that you can view without getting in a squeeze page etc.. kind of like the Yelp for turn key companies.. 90% of the prominent ones in the US are on the site.
