Refinance portion of BRRRR

Ricky McCoy
Posted

Hi all, 

New investor here with some questions on the refinance portion of the BRRRR strategy. Most banks that carry Fannie/Freddie loans have a seasoning period of 6 months which is a long when you have carrying costs. Any ways around this? I've found a couple of options, but not sure how legit they are:

-Delayed financing prior to 6 months, but only based on purchase price and closing costs, not ARV which isn't ideal.

-Cash out Refi with a private lender who has higher rates/fees

-One of my friends buys a property in the name of his LLC, rehabs it, then sells it to his spouse. Which apparently is a way around the seasoning period

Thoughts? Thanks!
