Oh thank you for the suggestions! I’m going to look into the delayed financing option 

BRRRRing a property in Cincinnati, but now considering moving into the home.

Are there any loan products that would allow me to cash-out refi at 90 days? I was going to do a DSCR loan to cash-out as an investment property at 90 days. With rates expected to continue rising I don't want to wait the 6 months if possible.

I live in the US. My parents live in Australia. They would potentially like to partner with me on future deals by providing the downpayment and I would find the deal.

Is this possible? Are there certain lenders that would be open to this?

Hi @Maddy C.,

I do a decent amount of BRRRR and creative financing type stuff in the Syracuse area. I've done more PML than HML, and I think you'll find them much more flexible. I'd start with friends and family - you'd be surprised how deep that well can be!
I think many sellers would absolutely be up to help with creative financing. I’ve had more luck with owner carry second mortgages than outright owner financing although I’ve done both. What areas are you looking at? PM me if I can help in any way. I’m a full time investor with about 130 units and love to talk shop!

 Thank you so much Greg! I really appreciate it.

Depending on your comfort level for commute time, neighborhood preferences etc. you should be able to find something that works for under $700k. There are a lot of different down-payment assistant options for first time homebuyers. Make sure you work with a lender who is familiar with the different programs that are available.

Thank you Mark. Are there any lenders that you would recommend?

@Todd Rasmussen thanks for the response! I just want to reduce my cost of living as much as possible. I don’t expect to cash flow while HH, but would love to pay no more than ~$1k/month. I’d live in a 5 bed house, turn the living room into a bedroom, Airbnb spaces... I’m comfortable with it all.

@Matt McMacken awesome! Are you doing full rehabs before you refinance? I’m not sure I’m confident enough to do a full rehab yet but it might be the only way to recycle cash

Considering the move to SD in September/October this year and want to purchase a house hack. Will be heading out there in March to check out neighborhoods and get a sense of the area. Would likely be working in the University City area.

Budget probably max $700k with FHA. It would just be me and I'm open to renting out rooms / parking spaces / mid-term rentals / living in a run-down ADU - honestly anything. And it has to make sense as a rental once I move out. I've seen a lot of posts on BP from even 12 months ago, and it seems that prices have increased since then.

I'd love to purchase a muti-family (using the future rental income to qualify for a larger loan) however they seem unattainable now with the prices. 

  • Are there any other ways to reduce cash on close - maybe first home buyer programs, rolling closing costs into the loan etc?
  • What strategies are you seeing that work for lower entry points?
  • What neighborhoods do you think I should check out while I'm there?

Would love to connect with seasoned investors in the Syracuse area who can walk me through how they structure / analyze cash deals. For buy & hold, is it possible to pay back HML/PML without refinancing? I'm nervous to do a big renovation but will need to incorporate creative financing in order to scale.

Do you ever find sellers open to seller financing / sub2?

Currently searching for cashflowing SFR under $80k on a conventional 30yr mortgage. Inventory has been very light lately. I had one under contract in December but it fell through. $60k pp, tenanted at $1250/month - would have been a great deal. Would prefer to use creative financing going forward.
