The benefit to buying cash and refinancing later is that you can close on a property quickly, which works in your favor in competitive markets.

I would love a ideas on what you think might be best to do in the current market and may even be interested in partnering with someone if the numbers work for both parties.

its a booming market!

@Jim LynchSome typical minimum tenant screening requirements look like the following, but it depends on your market:-Renter has a gross monthly income of 3x more than the monthly rent-Minimum credit score of 650-Renter must have no prior evictions-No felons (or other notable criminal history)There are a number of different tenant screening softwares out there such as Zillow Rental Manager, TransUnion SmartMove, etc.Be sure to complete an employment verification by contacting the renter's employer and confirm the details they shared with you, landlord verification (if they have a previous landlord), credit check, and background check.

So they used the actual rented data of these companies to compare what rentals should go for in your market.

Access to Cash Value: A properly structured permanent life insurance policy (like an IUL or whole life) can build cash value that you can borrow against for property acquisitions, renovations, or even as a safety net during market downturns. 2.
