This modern home is part of Griffin Modern's mission to create affordable, high-quality residences within walking distance of downtown Griffin.

There were some years ago when buyers would just take over the lease and that is it, the value stayed the same and it was transferred in escrow to the new buyer if they qualified. 

Quote from @Brandon Croucier: I’d be looking to get into a DSCR loan.These loans are qualified by the properties income rather than your income, can close in an LLC, and also do not report on your credit report! 

I highly recommend a well-qualified REALTOR who works with investors and knows how to help you best.7.

At a high level, this is generally the path people take - we see a lot of people have success in this route - start building the portfolio with banks, low down payments, and then **generally** when you hit around 5 or so properties - it starts to make sense to switch over to LLCs, its too hard to qualify/deal with paperwork of banks and switch towards private lenders like DSCR Loans - (LLC friendly, easier) to scale past 5 or so.

While you shouldn’t categorize all tenants and it’s the landlords responsibility to properly screen, the tenants who reside in better situated housing and pay higher rents are more financially responsible meaning lower rate of rent loss and will generally take better care of the property which combined will result in less time allocated towards management functions if self-performed or more favorable management fee structures if 3rd party management companies are utilized (which ties back to #1, as well).

@Josh LemonsThey have a regulation A offering which is open to accredited and non accredited investorsThe great thing is they have to submit their offering circular and have it qualified by SEC as well as submit financial information etc.All this means is the information is readily available and if you do not understand it then I recommend engaging an attorney who can interpret it.

My plan is to use my HELOC from my current primary residence as the down payment.

I am new to real estate investment and planning to start ramping up long term rental properties in 2025, however my first two primary residences were both converted into MIL's and rented within months after closing which effectively followed the House-Hack tactic (we currently rent our furnished basement to primarily traveling nurses for 3-6 months at a time which covers 70% of our mortgage).

We will allow you to use a new employment contract as qualifying income 6-12 months prior to your start date.
