I got a hard money/private loan a couple years ago but was never able to refinance out of it to a traditional 30 year and now the house is in the start of foreclosure.

Instead of a traditional loan, a capital partner might fund the deal in exchange for a percentage of the profits.

Hi BP community,After working with beginner investors and seeing how overwhelming deal analysis can be, I created a plug-and-play Real Estate Investor Starter Toolkit that includes:1.   4 Deal Analyzer Spreadsheets (Traditional, BRRRR, Co-Living, and Multifamily)2.   

They are informed, intentional, and not afraid to challenge traditional paths.How do you think the real estate industry can better support younger, first time home buyers without underestimating them?  

Not every property deal fits traditional financing.I’ve worked with investors on some creative structures lately —From quick-turn fix & flips to long-term commercial holds, the key is flexibility and speed.Would love to hear how others here are funding their deals — and I’m happy to share what’s been working for my network too.Always open to real estate conversations — drop a comment if you’re open to chat.

Sometimes buyers will do a membership interest transfer rather than a traditional title transfer — and some private lenders or hard money lenders are more flexible with that setup.Not all lenders like lending to LLCs on entity purchases — but some do if the property cash flows well.

I've bought a two traditional rentals in Pennsylvania in the past year, and I am attempting to speed up my acquisitions by getting into lease options.I'm purchasing this average 3/1 1970's range turnkey property subject to, in a suburb outside of Shreveport, Louisiana to turn into a lease option.Here are the stats:Current Value: ~$140,000I'm putting 6k down + closing costs, after light cosmetic touches I'll be into the property for about 10kSubject to mortgage: $101,000 3.5% $820/month PITICurrent Market Rent: $1300/monthMy goal here is to sell on a lease option with a 36 month term.Option Fee: $15,000Rent: 1350/month with a $50 creditPurchase Price after 36 months: $145,000 ($143,200)Is this option fee realistic?  

It’s a platform built for landlords that helps with rent collection, expense tracking, and even tenant screening—all without the traditional property management price tag.If you’re looking to cut costs but still stay organized, it’s a solid option.
