It super easy you sign up to have a quick call and do a quick tutorial with a Rep and you receive a certificate that you give to the Banker/Loan officer.

I was also on the construction loans..

By definition, these type of loans are not the same quality as what is traded on wall street. 

Hey @Brandon LaRose, do you have the ability to use a Margin Loan against a taxable portfolio, or a policy loan against a permanent life policy?

If not, ride out the 12 months with the hard money lender.People have to make good choices and not over extend themselves just for the sake of buying something they really can't afford or that doesn't make good cash flow.

I am responding as a consumer not a STR owner we had one its lasted for us for exactly one tenant then we felt it was too much work for the return  on investment we do much better loaning money and buidling new homes than to worry about people goofing up our homes :)I do have some MTR you know fully furnished homes in Vegas and those are money makers for us top of the line tneants paying double the going rate for rent.

Separately, the benefits and disadvantages of renting to Section 8 is a topic of extended debate on this forum.

You may not be able to easily separate that property from the loan to make that happen. 4.

This is why I use a loan broker...I want his experience with who can do what they say and who is a delay. 

To fund your next deal, explore conventional loans (15-25% down), FHA loans (3.5% down for house hacking), DSCR loans (based on rental income), or HELOC/cash-out refinance if you have equity.
