Quote from @Christian Solis: When looking for private money how do you guys properly present a fix and flip and how do you structure that deal so they are happy with there return on investment ?  

Belly to Belly is the best way for private money..

I'm looking to scale & use private lenders to expedite closing.

But by putting in the work myself and leveraging my skills, I was able to save a lot on labor costs.

You are considering putting a tiny home on your existing property as an ADU or using that money to save up and buy the next investment property and wondering which would be the wiser choice.I think ADUs can help provide additional, much needed, housing.

I am in one of the higher tax brackets and could be saving around 40k~ a year on taxes with this.

My thought is to take a compiled list of property addresses saved in Excel and then run data scrape from Zillow and Redfin on each of those addresses, pulling the property details back into excel and into the appropriate table I have set up.
