Thank you so much! I would never just find a random lender online, that sounds just dangerous unless you can really determine credibility.

@Coral Hernandez

That makes a ton of sense, thank you so much for the advice. That is a really good idea to ask a current client to talk like a reference!

Hi everyone,

I get business cards from hard money lenders at meetups all the time, is there anything I should be aware of with these people or anything “sketchy” that they can do if you work with the wrong ones?

Thank you,

Kyle

@Lien Vuong

Hi Lien!

Thank you for the wise words of advice, that is a really good point and I will make a mental note of that!

@Pat Tobin

Hi Pat,

Thank you so much for the amazing advice, you are right in saying people gloss over some of the important but less glamorous parts of househacking + investing, but they are essential parts of the business. I will definitely take a few mental notes from your advice, and hope you don’t receive as many “disturbing” tenant stories!

@Asif Baig

Hi Asif,

I really like Craig curelop’s book, it is really incredible how much information is in it. I like to take notes on everything I read because I retain it better and I have pages and pages of notes and I am only into the book a little bit. I highly recommend it!

Hi everyone, I had a question about something I heard on the BiggerPockets podcast today that blew my mind to pieces.

I am unsure of what episode I was listening to, but the person they were interviewing was an agent who bought properties with his buyers agent commission as part of a down payment.

I am an agent, and was wondering if it is allowed for me to buy a SFH or MFH with the intent to househack as an agent, so I can use my 2% commission from the seller for being the "buyers agent"?

Are there rules by state?

Thank you,

Kyle Curtin

Hi Todd! I would love to connect! I’ll send you a message!

@Bryan Balducki

Thank you so much Bryan! That is awesome, I will probably be looking into Airbnb especially in my area, that is a really good idea!

@Allan Smith

Thank you Allen! That is a really good idea. I will have to look into the Airbnb laws around my area and make sure I can.
