@Damien Davis - wholesale is a great way to get capital, to meet people and then to be able to scale.  We partner with wholesalers all the time.  DM me if interested in discussing more.  I'd love to have a conversation regardless.


 Can't say wholesaling is my thing  but I'm definitely always open to a conversation.

Hey BP Family,

After listening to the real estate rookie podcast from episode 1 to current (I had a lot of time on my hands), one thing that stuck out was that owning real estate was a business. It didn't really click with me until I kept hearing about the tax benefits. So, i started my own business and will refinance my multi-family with a DSCR loan and will close in my business name. This will help alleviate the DTI issue I was facing on the personal side. One thing that been weighing on my mind is how will I fund this business to effectively scale. I understand BLOCs, Business CC, loans, private lenders, hard money but all takes a considerable amount of capital. Any suggestions where to turn next so I can start funding the business without over leveraging myself?

Damien, on the topic of building business credit specifically, one aspect that many new to investing and business credit forget is to report and get your name out there - your business name!  Make sure you have an EIN for your business, are opening cards and using them properly, but also register your business with 411 and get a DUNS number through D&B (Dun and Bradstreet).  Here are a few other sites for speading your name as a good way to build the credit: 

https://www.411.com/
http://www.listyourself.net/ListYourself/
https://biz.yelp.com/
https://yext.com/
https://accounts.yellowpages.com/

Thank you so much Jason. This was very helpful. I just learned about D&B, so it's nice to know I'm getting good information.

Hello Remington,

Thank you for your response. Care to explain what a CRA program is? Can't say I'm familiar.

I've noticed during my lender search, there are no programs for repeat homebuyers. If I'm not low-income or a first time homebuyer, then there aren't much options to help in my home buying process. I do plan on negotiating seller concessions but do anyone know of any lenders or programs that would be worth looking into? Open to all advice. Thank you in advance.

Awesome @Brady Morgan I will definitely check out your YT channel. I don't find much 4-plex in my market so the idea of just building one and renting it came to mind. I will definitely do my research on this. Thank you!

@Paul Burger haven't thought about that. Where's the best place to find more information about it?

Thanks @Kristi Kandel I completely agree with you. I'm making it a point to get out to some local meetups and network this year. Working towards this year being a big step towards taking action. Experience is the best teacher.
