You can easily get a 30 year fixed rate unless you're asking for a commercial loan.   You don't need a commercial or portfolio loan until you go beyond 10 mortgages. 

Hi Xavier, 

Welcome to BP and the KC investing community.  I would  recommend joining the Mid-America Association of Real Estate Investors (MAREI) and the Bridge Real Estate Investing Meetup (both have Facebook groups and monthly meetings).  You'll make great friends, connections and be provided with a wealth of information from people eager to help. 

I'm in the KC market myself.  Feel free to reach out anytime.  

Congratulations Gianni! Well done and excellent planning with the oops factor.  ;)

I use an insurance broker to shop rates.   If you send me a PM, I'll send you my contact.

Yes, you can withdraw your Roth penalty free at 59 1/2.  I personally would not withdraw it to buy a D or C class property if your only safety net is the equity in your personal home.  You'll be buying a turn key property at the height of the market with little equity and appreciation is sometimes dismal.  In addition, I believe in diversification and wouldn't rely on one asset class for retirement (although I'm sure many do in the BP community).  

Hi Jake,  

I highly recommend joining the Mid America Association of Real Estate Investors (MAREI) and the Bridge Real Estate Investing group (both have Facebook pages). 

You'll make a ton of connections.  PM me if you need specific recommendations or have questions.   

Hi @Jake Sanders! 

Welcome to BP and the Kansas City investing community.  You'll find a ton of great information on BP but KC also offers many additional resources locally.  To start, @Nathan Brooks started a Facebook meetup page called Bridge Real Estate Investing Meetup.  The Bridge Facebook meetup is a great place to connect, learn, help and take action! They also offer live (online) events in addition to the monthly meeting.  Another great option is the Mid-America Association of Real Estate Investors (MAREI) organized and run by @Kim Tucker.  They also offer a Facebook page, monthly meetings, guest speakers, etc. Get involved and invite five friends to join both groups with you!  

Feel free to send me a PM with any additional questions.  I'm more than willing to share my experiences and help in any way I can. 

Jonathan, Nathan Brooks recently started a meetup on Facebook called Bridge Real Estate Investing Meetup which you might find helpful. You'll find a huge community of investors willing to help and share experiences/knowledge.
