Another option would be to speak with your tax person about the requirements and expense involved in lending the cash to the llc when needed.

Kind of a misnomer since you aren't really "refinancing" any previous loan, but new debt on a previously owned property that was owned free and clear will still have "refinance" terminology label.Correct on not needing to see a history of rental income - just forward-looking, there will be some variance among lenders and situations though whether the refinance can occur only after the lease has begun or if they will allow the refinance with just a signed agreement but not yet commenced (i.e. if the tenant signed an agreement today 9/10/2024 for a lease starting 10/1/2024)

I really don’t want the seller to just walk away because the U&O is too difficult (I also went through this process about a month ago with another home.)Should I call offer some advice/contractors number to hire to get it fixed up, go get a lawyer involved, or do I have other options?

I can see the advantages of being able to get a down payment to reinvest in a small MFR and I will be able to capitalize on my lower interest for some positive cash flow.All of the disadvantages I can think of involve some upfront investment for legal advice and work, time for further education and that's about it.Any feedback will be greatly appreciated.Thanks all!

I look forward to getting more involved with this community!

If you have multiple properties in a specific state you really should have an attorney draft your lease agreements and start to understand the laws or get a property manager involved to advise on these situations.

This is a really tough question to answer because there's no specific area involved.
