With and average occupancy ranging around 60% (depends on your product) the earning potential is high.

Is this the point where I need to go for private funding and hard money lenders?

If you know how to grind and talk to people, you'll make MORE money as an agent, just doing straight deals with buyers and sellers on the MLS.

If you used that $100k to buy with hard money, you could find a value add deal and potentially move into a higher priced property or even a duplex.

So my question is:Can I use this loan money to build and buy property in Mexico and still be able to deduct it 100%?

If you can make enough money and profit then go for it.

I am looking at doing some private money lending with Garnaco.  

Even if he's living off a recent inheritance, I would have asked to see his work history to ensure he's not (a) scamming, or (b) earning money from criminal endeavors. 3.

how’s buyer going to get a loan for 70% when he’s putting none of his own money into the deal and just getting the seller to carryback in second position what would normally be the down payment?  

But it seems that the modularity of those shipping container homes would be good to "test the waters" instead of putting a huge amount of money into constructing a big multi unit.But just wanted to hear thoughts !
