Quote from @Bonnie Low: The "best market" is less about the market per se and more about the deal you're able to find in my opinion.

I have found broker who will relay me borrowers' information, so I only need to find someone to borrow for low interest rate from.Any help will be much appreciated!

However, if your current interest rate is low, be aware you will be buying into a deal with much higher interest rate with today's rate.For your new purchase, you should be able to use a DSCR loan and get financing without income as long as credit is good.

This would also allow me to keep my primary at a low rate loan. 

The only people who succeed at birddogging are the ones who learn everything they can and know it's going to be a low-paid slog so they do the work hard and one day it changes because you have earned more.
