No loan officer is influencing me on how to commit loan fraud I did say that they did in fact inform me that I'd need to hold employment in the state.

I recommend people doing a side gig on what they specialize in.I am an accountant and when I worked within large public accounting firms, I had a side gig of bieng an accountant.I had a salary with my employer so regardless of how much more hours I put with them, i would be paid the same. 

Hi John, feel free to reach out if you are looking for some additional options on your DSCR loan!

From a credit perspective, house hacking also helps you build strong cash flow, which can make it easier to secure financing for future deals.Additionally, if you're targeting high-appreciation markets, you could also look into cash-out refinancing down the line to pull equity and fund additional investments.

With all six lots in walking distance of the Eisenhower Avenue Metro, the major government employers listed above, and Caryle Crossings, as well as The Foundry (another mixed-use development), the Alexandria Planning Development Division Chief Rob Kerns, described these 6 lot developments as the "next logical step" in the cities effort to further densify the area.

Additionally, don’t overlook the opportunity cost of pulling money from your 401k—those funds could have been compounding in the market.I’d also suggest stress testing your ROI by running scenarios with higher expenses or lower rents to see how resilient the investment is.

The third, I think I will break even or small profit, but it will be on the longer end of the hold, like 7+ yrs overall.I have not had any additional capital calls.

@Chris Kay beleive you can do DSR loans without a job as they qualify the property, not the borrower.You'd still need 20-25% down though.That's where you have a decision:- Pay down the mortgage, setting yourself up for a future refinance to free up your VA Entitlement.OR- Save up for your next acquisition.Only YOU can make that decision as you have to be comfortable with the increasing debt-load risk and the additional time to manage everything.

After a couple of years of treading the path to frugality to build this financial runway, I've networked with the greatest people who made this all happen, of course, it took the strength, determination, time, etc to place myself where I am today but, without the mentorship of my two great mentors whom I wish used BiggerPockets so I can mention, I don't believe I would have made it thus far relying on some whimsical dream that this will all pan out accordingly, thank you for everything Greg and Lashawn.In addition, I would like to thank Bigger Pockets for connecting me with the greatest realtor @Stephen Schmitt Who took my dreams and aspirations to the core when we first connected and spoke about my future goals to replace my W2 job for financial freedom. within three months of me deciding to pull the trigger and get pre-approved, we found this killer cash-cow that apprised over purchase price!!! 

I understand credit enhancements and additional guarantors are sometimes required but to be unable to cover escrow funds and to give away deal ownership for that service is kind of crazy but back to the main point, the real issue is when the Co-GP is not truthful about their true role or embellishes their portfolio/ unit count.
