Hey i would definitely love to be back on the show !!! I over love you guys lol but Happy holidays & hope we get to talk soon i will submit my story ASAP! Quote from @Ashley Kehr:
Wow what a turn of events for you in 2024!! I would love to talk more about having you on as a guest on the Rookie Podcast to go into how exactly you were able to handle this upset in your real estate journey. I think this would be really insightful to other rookies who maybe have a fear of failing or are struggling right now. If you would be interested in sharing your story please apply at biggerpockets.com/guest
Your mindest seems incredible and keep up the hard work! Happy Holidays and here is to a NEW YEAR!

Most definitely @Jerryian Francois!
Just to confirm my understanding, you are living in a side by side duplex in Miami - you want to renovate the other side that you aren't living with a renovation loan?
You can refinance into a FHA 203k or like @Jason Wray mentioned you could even use a Fannie May homestyle renovation loan as well!
We have helped a ton of clients with the process here in Chicago..just be sure to find a team (Agent, Lender, HUD Consultant, and General Contractor) that has done these renovation loans in the past!
Hey thanks for the response and yes i am staying on the other side of a side by side duplex and would like to renovate my side and the other side !

Yes, you can use an FHA 203K program or even convert it to Fannie mae and use a renovation loan if the LTC/ARV allows.

Quote from @David Ramirez:
Miami is such a different market compared to the rest of Florida. I used to live in the Miami/Fort Lauderdale area, but since I moved to Tampa in 2020 to build my real estate company, I've never looked back, lol. We actually market 25 of the largest counties in Florida, excluding Miami-Dade and Broward.
