I like Buffalo because I am biased, but the advice is the same.There is old housing stock, the asset condition is extremely important. 

I actually found a few diffrent companies with exactly what I needed.

I'm not sure what exactly what is near you. 

Our ARV came out lower than I had hopped- actually it came out exactly where I had ran my numbers at, but with unexpected permitting requirements and increased material costs the project was about $70,000 over budget for the rehab.

What exactly are you trying to find out? 

While most DSCR lenders require 20-25% down, some allow lower down payments under certain conditions:1. 15% Down DSCR Loan✅ Some lenders allow 85% LTV (15% down) with strong DSCR (1.2+), good credit (700+), and reserves✅ Higher interest rate compared to 20% down✅ May require prepayment penalty2. 10% Down DSCR Loan (Rare & More Expensive)✅ Available for experienced investors with strong financials✅ Often requires higher reserves (6-12 months of PITI)✅ Could involve seller concessions or second lien financing3. 0-10% Down with Creative Financing🔹 Seller Carryback: Find a seller willing to carry a second mortgage for part of the down payment🔹 Cross-Collateralization: Use equity in another property instead of cash down🔹 Gap Funding / Private Money: Partner with a PML for the down payment

And I started out intending exactly that.I gave developing a personal brand and a strong internet presence my heart and soul.

You pay a bit more, but you get exactly what you want and don't have to worry about maintenance for a while which is obviously a savings.I live in the Woodlands, so considering the location of my home and rental property, I'd ideally like to build this in the area of The Woodlands, Conroe, Spring, Tomball, Klein, or Cypress. 

In terms of negotiating the deal, we looked at the property and its condition and negotiated the price down and eventually met in the middle.

Absolutely on our next show Episode we have Jeff Armstrong talking about this exact topic. dont know Jeff but I have been dealing with seller carry back notes since the 70s..
