Can I use traditional mortagage for initial buy when doing BRRR

[Tariq Naseem]

Dear members, I am new to real estate investing and am now gearing up to do my first purchase. I would like to ask if it is possible to make a profit while applying BRRRR strategy if using the traditional mortgage for initial purchase (and then again to refinance)?

I live in Boston and real estate prices are fairly steep in my neighborhood. I'm wary of taking hard money or private loan for over $400-500,000 for my first purchase.

Thank you!
