I have a first-position hard money lender in place (purchase + rehab financing), and everything on that side is moving forward.Where I’m stuck is the remaining gap capital needed for the down payment, closing costs, and initial carry.Here’s what happened (lesson learned the hard way):Earlier in the process, I planned to do this deal with a few friends who verbally agreed to invest alongside me.

Curious what rent numbers you’re seeing vs. purchase prices?

there are some metro areas that have high demand all year but those also tend to be more transient (move more often) as they are considered more "trendy" and often the renters do not have kids and so school year and school friends and schools do not dictate where they move. 

What has been the biggest success for you as a newer investor friendly agent between the age of 25-35? 

I have always enjoyed the whole process and watched a few friends get very successful in the industry.

Families, friend groups, and multi-generational travelers filter listings by number of bedrooms and sleeping capacity first, then look at price.

--Many will state that's your job, but then what value are they truly offering as an "investor-friendly" agent?

I need some direction on a potential subject-to purchase.

Louis and I’m interested in getting into rental property investing, specifically single-family homes (3-bed/2-bath and 4-bed/3-bath).

If a property goes into foreclosure and the lender purchases it at the sheriff sale, the status shows "Purchased-Buy Back."
