Hi BP Fam! I am an experienced Real Estate Agent (8 years) in the DC area and have partnered with a past client to begin flipping homes in the area. We have capital to get skin in the game but our immediate short term goals are:
1. Find lending partners
2. Find our first deal - hope to get something under contract in 3-6 months
Looking forward to interacting with you all in the future!
Welcome - sounds like a good reasonable timeline, wishing you success

Quote from @Ivonne Hunter:
Hello to all, I’m recently got into escrow on my very first investment property and when going through all of the fees to close I came across a “lock in rate” fee which is to lock in the 6.125% interest rate at a whopping 4% of the loan amount ($540k) which is an additional $12k. Has anyone ever heard of this.

Go to a private lender that offers both hard money and DSCR loans, they will be the most flexible and creative in structuring the deal the best way and giving best optionality for when you are ready to refinance or sell

Thank you
Adding 5% prepayment protection for 5 years and a couple points can make the rates extremely competitive

Hello BP,
I'm a new REI in the Houston area and looking to make connections with agents, contractors, lenders, and property managers.
I haven’t seen many in-person networking events in the Meetup app so if anyone in the area knows of any, please let me know.
Thanks, and I look forward to connecting with many of you.
Do you ever make it up to Austin? Several good networking groups up here that meet regularly, would be worth it to make the drive every now and then to join!

are you seeing any shift in composition of the buyers with the recent cooling off (i.e. more/less investors vs. owner-occupied?)
