They will be able to guide you in the right direction and tell you if your project is feasible or not.From there, we hire outside consultants to take the plan through the approval process.

If you're already pre-approved, I would recommend verifying that your lender can service a non-warrantable condo and is keeping the loan in-house.It's completely normal to second-guess a decision like this—there's always some speculation involved.

While this sounds like a win, the number of cases where it is feasible are few and far between. 1) There is an application and approval process required by the bank for the loan to be transferred.

I am working on getting a pre-approval and hopefully will be picking up something this year! 

As a reminder, the San Antonio City Council approved new STR rules (you can see my post regarding this here!).
