Newbie looking to take action

[Tanya Maslach]

Hi, I'm Tanya Maslach and I'm trying to become a more active real estate investor. What does that mean? ;-)

I have owned and rented SFH since I was in College (I bought my first home, and then lived in it while collecting rent to pay the mortgage and make cash from my roomies.). SInce then it was all traditional purchases (SFH), and rentals.

But for the last decade (!) I've wanted a ratio of faster cash flow (60% of portfolio goal) + more appreciation (40% of portfolio goal) and have been stuck on the "how do I find partners to help with capital down payments/investments?" and "how do I architect creative financing to make the speed and efficiency of my money work smarter?"

I'm scared to death I'll mess this up, (never done this approach before!) and excited by what I see on BP and how so many are making this happen together.
So I'm here to learn who I can partner with, and where I can use my strengths to be of value to sellers and partners in this real estate investment community!

I'm most interested in Sub-to deals, Seller Financing, and BRRR type of deals. The property types I'm most interested in are: Small (2-4 plex) and Large Multifamily.

I have a buy box, but will keep all that offline in case there are people here who are open to talking with me more about this! ;-)
Thank you.

I think #1 is its good to be a little scared, until you have successfully completed your goal.  From the loans I am seeing, the midwest has lost of opportunities for cash flowing properties.  Obviously being in Denver has opportunities for upside appreciation.  If you are looking for ways to find people to network with, I would suggest joining a real estate investment club such as Lifestyle's Unlimited, they have over 55,000 members.  They have a saying in the club, "There are those that want to work, and there are those that want let others work" I think this would be a great way to find your gap lenders/partners that you are looking for.  Also, to make your money go farther, cutting down closing costs is a great way to do that, We can help with that, which is why we offer 1 point Origination Fix and Flip loans.

Is sounds like you already have a portfolio, you may want to look at refinancing your existing portfolio to free up cash for future purchases, the buyer's market is only going to last so long as these interest rates are being cut.
