Let's say you are a brand new investor. 

Australia specifically but I’m interested in hearing about how you financed deals as an international investor!

Any investors willing to share expense numbers and agent recommendations with me? 

I'm looking towards learning from new and seasoned investors and how to build a solid investment profile.  

Have a clear plan on whether you’re flipping or refinancing.Resale Timeline: Luxury homes take longer to sell, so choose a lender with flexible extensions.Comps & Market Data: Lenders will scrutinize your market comps carefully—be ready with solid data.Recommended Hard Money Lenders for Luxury DealsLima One Capital (nationwide, up to $5M loans)Kiavi (formerly LendingHome, great for experienced investors)RCN Capital (offers high LTV & ARV-based loans)Dominion Financial (fix-and-flip specialist)Private Capital Investors (custom luxury financing)Key TakeawaysHard money is a great fit if you’re confident in your numbers and have a strong exit plan.Shop lenders to get the best terms.Ensure you have reserves to cover holding costs in case of a longer-than-expected sale timeline.If you need help structuring the financing package or connecting with a lender, let me know!

I think the best thing that I can think of (assuming they don't care about you having one loan on two parcels) is to purchase, rehab all the units at the same time, immediately sell off the SFH to hopefully pay off a good chunk of the loan (which is possible because it is on its own parcel) and then rent out the duplexes paying down the loan as quickly as possible, which you could accelerate by feeding in capital from an investor or another source.

And then you have BP and an army of experienced investors happy to answer your question or poke holes in your deal before you pull the trigger..Be honest with yourself, are you looking for moral support?

The market here is def short on inventory so most likely it will sell quickly.Either way, always happy to connect with a local RVA investor!
