However I mainly wanted to ask about getting housing leases from traveling nurses.I currently have a 5 bed 2 bath, 1920 sqft home in a great neighborhood located less than 1.5 miles from 2 large hospitals here outside of Richmond.

Sorry, have not been on in a while - I did not attend the event and currently have decided not to pursue RAL and focus on our single family and multifamily properties.

Here is the current building code in Oakland, CA:"In Oakland, California, a bedroom closet is a separate closet in a sleeping room that has a door opening that's at least 2 ft 4 in wide by 6 ft 8 in high.

I currently have this property under contract, expected to close within 3 weeks.

Interest Rates: Current spreads, rate structure, buydowns, mission driven business, factors that influence your rate, etc.5.

If you do have enough other income then you dont even need to lease out this property to start your refinance.However if you dont have enough income to qualify with no rental income offset then yes you will need to obtain your lease(s) and security deposit + 1st months rents deposited before you can utilize 75% of this gross income - your monthly PITIA payment (in terms of qualification on this property refinance.So all in all Id make sure what your current debt to income position is first of all (DTI) and then strategize to see if you even need the leases at all.

Value: I am paying current market value. 

Looking at 50% LTV currently.

Posted this on the Multifamily section, but realized after I should post it here.I am a current Senior at the  Catholic University of America playing Baseball and finishing up my accounting degree.

Quote from @Steve Englehart: I currently have two long term rentals and am looking into buying into the short term rental arena.
