I want to get started as a real estate investor, but of course banks have tightened up on their financial products.

Here is my thought: What if I got a hard money loan then refinanced it? Would that work? Are banks more comfortable with refinancing than they are with mortgages?

I’m seeing that hard money loans are easier to get, but they are extremely expensive and short term. So my plan is to get a hard money loan, make some payments to show good payment history. Then refinance. Twice if possible.

thoughts?

I know that banks look at your assets when negotiating short sales, but are retirement accounts included. Is there a way to hide that money or any money? I am drowning under my mortgage, but I don’t want foreclosure and bankruptsy. I owe 556,000 combined two mortgages and I still can’t sell my house at 540,000. It was appraised at 640, 000 at the beginning of the summer, but there is too much inventory and too few buyers. HELP!!!

I want to change my field of work and I do not know where to get trained.

I am searching for financing to make home improvement repairs, I submitted a request for a home equity loan through lending tree. The lenders throwing out terms such as 1st mortgage, 2nd mortgage, and home equity loan.

I am applying for a loan modification. If I decide later to sell my home, will this loan modification effect my credit report, so I am unable to purchase a new home?
