Is it possible to be a Private Lender professionally?

@Paul Sandhu I would suggest you hire a professional company to do it.

Lots of not-so-professional work happening.

If I were to proceed with that purchase, I would still get a professional inspection. 

Because the demand for it will be low.Likewise you can have an older building that needs work, but in a GREAT neighborhood where everything has been rehabbed, and the area residents are all executive level professionals, and it can make your property a class B or A property.

You are wise to seek out professional assistance, especially with the house-hack.

If you are going to develop into a full time professional real estate investor you are going to have to develop emotional intelligence along with everything else.

I would like to connect with more young professionals/investors who have done a decent amount of deals.

I'm sure you've sold plenty of condos to these folks.What's left over, such as the courthouse auctions, usually goes to folks with established businesses - professional contractors and long-time investors with rehab crews in place that can turn your $25k flip into a $15k flip.All of those rule-of-thumb equations you read everywhere are regional. 

@Chris Ellis Im currently exploring the Business LOC option ... but this is a new company with no real history, so no tax returns to say how much I've made. working on some creative ways around that, but no dice yet.Thank You Gentlemen
