@Andrew Self I would like to think that my company is the best and offers the lowest rates and closing costs, but perhaps I am bias.

Wife and I are both self-employed so acquiring a traditional mortgage is challenging based on our "on paper" income.

Depending on your new job as a 1099/self employed, there are likely other loan options available that can work.

Being able to purchase a property with only 5% down means you can leverage your money way more effectively.

Is it having any effect yet in actual deals?

I am looking for a CPA to give guidance on the most effective way to go about the process and work with going forward.

we can do it not rented but rate will be significantly higher. easier and more cost effective to rent it. unless the bridge money needs to be paid back asap or you need the funds back to buy more, then a cost analysis needs to be done. personally id get it rented at market rent or a touch below if time is a factor.
