The best thing you can do is ask around your area and see if there is an investor will to lend out his own money. I have a guy here in Tulsa who does that. All I have to do is find a property I like for say around 30K that fixed up would be worth 50K. I go to him and he writes me a check for 40K closeing costs are less then a 1000 and I use the 10K to fix the prop. Then in 3 months I sell the property for 50K and pay off my loan with a 1% prepayment fee and I pocket the rest. I typically make around 10K per house or I don't buy it. trick is not doing the work yourself and hiring a cheap handyman or a few mexicans. I try not to lift a finger seeing as how I don't really have the time. I also have a guy that looks for properties for me, if he finds one I buy it through him, it saves me time and money.
