What would you do?

Hey BP,

Just acquired my first duplex using a 10% down 7 Year arm loan...

My job is a sales engineering role... I have a guaranteed salary for the first year (which helped me get my first loan), but then it goes to pool plan style commissions after that... (Wondering would you guys recommend a fixed salary position in order to scale quickly or it won't matter)

I love the idea of long term tenants with 1 year leases... What would you (a more experienced investor or lender) recommend I do if I am looking to scale quickly with hopes of buying a 4-12 unit property as soon as possible?

(I can go into more detail in DMs)

Hey Sam, 

Have you looked into DSCR loans?

Lenders qualify you based on the rental income covering the mortgage payment. No tax returns or DTI required to qualify
