Four options:


a) make more money .. see 5 ways to make money here http://myreinspace.com/public_forums/General_Discussion/61-3347-5_ways_to_make_money.html

b) re-fi one or more properties .. if they still cash-flow then ..

c) sell one or more properties .. then re-invest in better deals .. or

d) find money partners to invest with you .. based on a small`ish track record you have !

What is your website ?

That is step one !

Step 2 is a salesy, yet realistic attitude and personal manner to present your story / opportunity !

Step 3 is a business card

Step 4 is to develop a JV kit to attract money partners. This kit includes:
a) personal story,
b) sample past properties / track record,
c) write up on why invest with me,
d) legal agreement,
e) relevant newspaper articles,
f) why invest in the location you propose,
g) specific deal with projected possible ROIs based on some realistic assumptions

Once you`ve got that send me a sample or post it here and folks will give you feedback what can be improved !

As part of step 4 the trick is to turn every conversation into a real estate conversation.
 
The good answer is you don`t yet until you have more money
The other answer is find JV partners
 
Since you have equity in your properties, why not refinance some of your holdings? The banks will give you 80% LTV.

The banks will conduct a appraisal to verify the value of the property.

dont the mortgage companies still look at your credit when they are refinancing the properties?

Wow what a great post!

I would suggest you offer up a share of your existing properties with FIXED numbers that investors can measure against other investment options. You will have to sell yourself much less as your property will do the selling for you if you have managed them properly!

Then you can take that $ and go and buy something else.

Don`t worry about your credit until a GOOD mortgage broker tells you you can`t afford anything. There are some EXCELLENT ones out there that can get you mortgages when you never thought you would be able to.

not quite .. the investor looks at both YOU and the DEAL !!

Of course... But he is going to have to sell himself either way. Pitching a turn-key property just takes a lot of variables out of the equation.
