With private lending secured, I bought the property, excited to add another rental to my portfolio.What I didn’t expect was just how much of a nightmare this property would turn into.After closing, we began the renovation.

I may be able to help you secure a no-experience ground-up construction loan, even though lenders typically require someone with prior construction experience.If you're willing to reach out, I’d be happy to discuss the possibility of pulling some strings to get this project funded.

You could also consider seller financing, where you work out a deal with the sellers to pay off the remaining mortgage balance while securing the deed.All these options would help you avoid the risks of not holding title to the properties while also giving you access to the equity you've built.

Consider all the things that could go wrong and see if the lease addresses them: unauthorized pets or tenants, early termination, security deposit, lease violations, late rent, eviction, lawn maintenance, parking, etc.5.

The vast majority of lawsuits against Landlords are for wrongful eviction, security deposit disputes, and Fair Housing Violations.

This is a very rare offering from what I can tell (based on my research), and these features in conjunction with the amenities my building offers (you name it we have it) and secured garage parking available (extra $), I am allowed to charge a premium for my rental.

Nothing was noted or said, other than make sure you have security in place.  

While interest rates are higher, they could work as a short-term solution to help you secure the property, and you can always refinance later once you have a steady income.3.

What strategies have you found effective for securing long-term rental loans?

I also wanted to add a few security cameras outside and in the common area.
