Hello, everyone, I got introduced to the real estate world by my investor husband and now I'm a REI-leiver. I truly believe in real estate investing. My goal is to take what I know, learn more, and apply it to my ever...

Can I use rate and term refinance to pay off my hard money principal (including rehab portion) until the 12 month seasoning period until I can cash out?

I respectfully disagree with @John Underwood regarding seasonality.

I truly appreciate the advice and experiences shared by seasoned investors here and look forward to learning from your insights.

My plan is to monitor those rental listings during the fall and winter seasons, and see which units are more consistently booked.

Understand the demand for short-term rentals there, the peak seasons, and what similar properties are charging.I would also suggest networking with others who are already investing in that area.

Add to this its very seasonal, most places struggle to get any occupancy during the winter.If you want to discuss the Virginia Beach Norfolk area shoot me a message, there some opportunities here.

Hello Cory, thank you for your input, I appreciate this from a seasoned investor and one who has boots on the ground.

Seasonal. 

Please provide useful advice on locating, assessing, and negotiating private money lending deals, especially from seasoned professionals.
