@Kyle Rucker- thanks ....you will have a tough time locating a 2nd loan for  180K +  ....Ask the realtor you are working with for options ...Make sure that the lender holding the FHA loan will be able to approve your assumption  request  ( this can be a long drawn out step ) .....if you do find a 2nd mtg - compare the fha loan and 2nd mtg  to a  simple new FHA or conventional loan as there may not be a large difference 

This is a business model that I could very easily and quickly set up and get running.Despite the upsides of conventional rental property investing, there are several massive advantages of converting rental properties to notes.I'd like to know if this is something y'all think I could pursue with my company?

@Mayur Dewaikar I don't have any good data on rental inventory but it's always slow in the winter.

As for buying your first rental you can say it will be your new primary residence to take advantage of the 3.5% FHA or 5% conventional.

I would say conventional / FHA (bank loans) would be your best option.

Connect with me for specific questions or to get out current off market inventory.  

I'm happy to share that inventory with you!
