Use it only if absolutely necessary because debt = risk and having been badly bitten by my largest lender pulled the plug on my largest loan at the very worst time and with no prior notice.

Quote from @Paul Azad: Don't know anything about them but per my calculations they are taking 27.2% of the capital appreciation on the New Braunfels deal at the end per their projections which seem optimistic in this oversupplied environment, (Austin MSA with largest new multi-family projects coming out this year in the country ,8% of total existing stock and already seeing rent rate declines of near 10%in the city so far) and they are taking a big chunk of the monthly cash on cash as the preferred payouts for their 3 different classes are well below the projected cash on cash total.

It's true that getting started in a higher-rate environment is like learning to swim in the deep end.

At our largest location we have 84 cameras.

Even many of the largest hard money lenders don’t make second-position loans.While HELOCs always seem appealing, since you feel the untapped money is burning a hole in your pocket, the current returns from private lending using a HELOC are not worth the risks.

Hey Blake, I used to work for the largest relocation company in the country.
