I saw the pitch and know the area. 

Hello BiggerPockets Community,I’m currently in the process of expanding my real estate portfolio and am looking to establish relationships with hard money lenders who can offer the most competitive and lowest rates available in the market.I am a business owner with $1.5 million in verifiable funds.

we have around $200k in cash and looking to invest in the US (we're Canadian) a bit lost any advice would be appreciated. 

I use Quickbooks online for the formal accounting so it's easy for my tax guy to get in there and do his piece every year, since I have an LLC per building.

The loan has an expected 11% interest rate over a period of 15 months.

With all the headlines showing large apartment buildings selling at 30% to 40% less than a few years ago I thought the same would hold for the small apartment market.

We are reverting back to a buyer’s market, and the next 2 years will offer ample opportunities.How many people wished they had bought in 2009-2013?

My situation: I have an FHA loan at about 5.5% and my understanding is that it usually makes sense to refi once rates are about .5% lower than your existing rate, which means I may need another .75 to 1% decrease in the rate.

I bought a primary residence last October that I planned on renting out come this October (next month) and would love some advice from more experienced folks on my next steps, because I came up with a few options. 

Hey Hares, I started to see the same slippage in a property management company I was using in NC and ultimately I made the decision to self manage everything even from across the country.
