Hi BP community; long-time member here.I’ve seen a number of threads recently around capital gaps, lender hesitation, and timing issues on short-term fix & flips, especially when a project is already under contract and moving toward closing.On 3–4 month projects, I’ve found that capital conversations tend to move fastest when the structure stays simple and the risk is clearly defined.

EXAMPLE: I haven't cut my own lawn in over 10 years because I can get it done significantly cheaper than what I make per hour.The other component to keep in mind is landlords typically hire PMCs for one of two reasons:1) No time to properly manage2) No expertise to properly manage- Note: if you have enough time you can learn the needed expertise.Everyone wants to focus on how supposedly "easy" it is to manage rentals.The reality is:1) The difficulty & required time increases as the property/tenant quality decreases with Class A => Class B => Class C => Class D2) It only takes one bad tenant, bad contractor/handyman or mistake that leads to a lawsuit to cost a landlord SIGNIFICANTLY MORE than the cost of a PMC.What Class of rental do you have?
