@Joseph Champion you can absolutely bring your partner on Monday. Yea, there's no obligation to join the group or pay any dues the first meeting you go to. Come check it out and get some great info and if you guys decide to come back for the March meeting, then we would ask you to join at that point. Let me know if I can answer any other questions.

Hey Joe,

Sounds like a cool deal. I've dealt with some lenders that will incorporate the rehab costs into the loan, but it has to be at an 80% after repair value. e.g. if you would need $90k for the property and rehab costs, the appraisal would need to come in at $112,500 after the repairs are complete. If you're confident that those numbers would works, I can definitely refer you to a lender that might be able to help. Also, I thought I would let you know about a local REI meet up that is on Monday. The speaker is a commercial lender that works with investor's. You might be able to get some good info from that as well.
