The more lead credits you purchase at once the more you save.

I think they are just an extremely conservative bank and that is their interpretation of Fannie's guidelines.I have already gotten approved from some other banks (credit unions), so I'm not worried, but I am curious if anyone else has run into a bank telling them they need at least a 20% down payment on 3-4 units, regardless of it being FHA or not.

DSCR loans are based off of down payment, credit score and either actual or market rents so it helps to supercharge an investor's real estate goals and net worth.

What matters more is whether the borrower in question has the (i) time, (ii) contacts, (iii) experience, and (iv) ability to effectively communicate & package their loan request to banks & credit unions in a way that is compelling to those lenders. 

Scott – This one is tailored to investors looking to understand real estate accounting and bookkeeping.You might also consider looking into general bookkeeping books like "QuickBooks for Dummies" for managing finances, especially if you ever plan to expand beyond REI Hub or need more detailed tracking!

It looks like you're on the right track with your math, but a couple things could help.

You're the fish.They often use a mix of fear, threat and urgency to push a target to act.It can be as simple as a 24 hours sale from your favorite shop that requires you to log in to your account first or your boss asking you to wire money right now or he/she/they will lose an important contract that will cost millions.So cybersecurity is important because without that, you might have an incident that can cost a lot of money, impact your reputation and might affect your credit score.

If you have good credit they don't ask for a deposit so it very easy.

They both work slightly differently, but are similar enough that a call to the tenants rep usually can get you on the right track to making sure you follow all of the guidelines.

Hi @Rene Hosman -In a nutshell, I find motivated sellers and tenants with damaged credit (or ones without a large enough down payment) and work to put the tenants in the seller's house with an option to buy.
