Its a good question and lots of resources here on BP to learn - generally going the "conventional" route with mortgage loans from private lenders that conform to GSE (Fannie Mae) standards is great for your first few, then many switch over to "DSCR Loans" when they start scaling towards property number 3,4,5 etcI recommend talking to Jeff Welgan at Bluprint home loans to talk to to learn about the conventional options https://bluprinthomeloans.com/jeff/Also feel free to check out these resources on "DSCR Loans" which don't use DTI at all and are really good for scaling:BP-Published DSCR Guide!

12% APY for our Private Lender on this deal.100% passively.We borrowed the funds, we fixed the propertyWe sell it when it's beautified. 

I can definitely help you find refinance solutions that fit your strategy, including options with shorter seasoning periods and up to 75% LTV cash-out refinances.I have relationships with dozens of private lenders who cater specifically to foreign investors, all of which offer flexible terms that could align with your goals.
