I've finished the course and I was given free a mobile home that needs to be rehabbed so I'll wholesale it thru cogo capital folks too.

Most 1-4 unit real estate investors are using DSCR loans right now for any buy and holds while flippers lean on higher leverage bridge/fix and flip loan options with higher interest rates.

I already have land holdings near Everett that will certify out at 304 salable density bonus credits.To play this game, I get certified and then "clip off" the transferable development rights for sale to urban developers in the county, who can cash them in for an increase in dwelling unit density from an original 22 units/acre to 58 units, and building heights from 45' to 75'.

My first questions are what price range are you trying to buy a property in and do you have a home already in the United States?

Investment Info:Large multi-family (5+ units) buy & hold investment in West Allis.

Then progress to permits and then building.You could also just do it and hope the city doesn't notice, which they probably won't.Your challenge will be getting Certificates of Compliance on the units!

@Matthew DrouinThe one I'm looking at right now is a smaller 8-unit project - only around a $100-125k equity raise + loan guarantee.

Solar panels may qualify for the 30% federal energy credit, and advertising expenses, like adding your company’s logo, are deductible.However, Section 280A restricts deductions for any dwelling unit used as a residence for more than 14 days annually, even if partially used for business.

It depends on the rental income, what you plan on putting down (20-25% is typical, 15% or 25% is required for conventional depending on # of units) For your owner occupied deal, you should be able to use a portion of the rental income to qualify and help offset your DTI a bit. 

However, this will be brutal for Non-EU countries including the United States.
