Quotes:
“HUD is very nice once you get it put together. In fact, you get 40 years and 20 months of fixed-rate, because you can get 20 months of construction financing.”
“Go work for someone that’s doing it and find out if you really like it, and you start learning there because it’s a big learning curve. Sometimes I go to bed at night and wish I could just buy something finished and cash flow it like the old days. But it’s got its rewards. It does feel good to take a piece of dirt and have a big hit.”
