In my opinion, if what you want is leads, you aren't going to make the right use out of Pro because you will be trolling for buyers and sellers instead of being an asset to the community and answering questions.If you've been a Pro member for several years and have only made three posts, you haven't been interacting with the community over that timeframe and that is where relationships are built.

Hi @Philip Jones,For the refinance aspect, the main factors will be the FICO Score, cash flow of the property, and as-is value.A Higher FICO will let you get a larger loan size and lower interest rate.Good Cash Flow will ensure that your property will be profitable for you and enable you to get the max loan size that your FICO allows for.The As-is Value will play an important role in making sure that you meet the minimum requirement for a DSCR loan of 100k, but also in making sure that the rehab work that has been done provided significant value add.

Any advice, leads or potential partnerships would be greatly appreciated.Thank you all!
