Bottom line is you need the best product at the best price.

If you have a good product and provide good service, you'll appeal to the masses and then you'll have a much higher quality tenant base.

But if you cross the line to recommending other investment products you're a broker/financial advisor, correct?

Why has this type of product disappeared? 

•When I am doing ______ I feel most productive and excited about the work I'm doingThats a very simple view but I believe perhaps if you start with those 3 questions you may be able to work backward into what opportunities for a career in real estate may suit you for the long run!

Reach out if you’d like to discuss the process further and get you prepared.I seek a product that shortens the 3 weeks down to 1 day where the lender makes the decision based on criteria that will be real in the future and is easy validatable when everyone is at the closing table. 

Your intent must be to hold for productive investment use. 

I made my decision based on the fact that a) $5800 for a 90-day program was something I couldn't afford; b) $5800 for a 90-day program seemed VERY fishy/scam-y/pyramid-y to me; c) after scouring the internet for information, reviews, etc about the program, I found literally ZERO bad or less than 5-star reviews about it which - to me - is a massive red flag; no program, product or service is perfect, and the fact that they are making themselves appear as such really gave me a bad feeling about the program.

It’s a very specialized product, which is why the broker I’m with focuses only on this loan.
