If you are buying it as an investment property, you are buying it at a much higher rate than a traditional owner-occupied loan so you must be in a primary residence now and are just planning a just-in-case scenario.At first, I thought this was a no-brainer answer as if you can do whatever you want, but those investment loans are banking on the income projected as part of the collateral for the loan so it's a good question.A seasoned lender or someone who has had to move back into one of their properties will get you the best answer.

Wall Street often doesn't highlight these options because they make money from the fees on traditional investments, but with a Self-Directed IRA or Self-Directed 401(k), people can take control of your retirement savings and invest directly into real assets if they wish.Here’s how it works:1.

I'm just a property owner looking to deal with an operator, just collecting my rent.Can anyone tell me what are the things which are different compared to the traditional residential lease in California?

I'm weighing the options between renting to a Section 8 tenant or a traditional renter.My goal is to rent the property for $1,100 to $1,200 per month.

We usually keep it to praising how well they’ve taken care of the place and saying how we’d be honored to carry on the tradition.  

Can DL manage vacation rentals as well as traditional rentals?

If you need additional capital outside what a traditional bank or credit union would give you on the debt side, maybe start exploring higher leverage private credit / hard money options.

If your goal is to acquire additional investment properties in the future, you are better off starting out with a traditional rental, whether single family or multi-unit, compared to a vacation rental or Airbnb, where the income potential might be higher but won't be used to help you qualify to purchase other properties in the future.

@Kyle Hendricks You say you are a lender, is that a traditional bank lender, or do you offer private lending?

Ivorie, in that case you could just do a traditional refinance of the borrowed funds form the private lender.
