Do you know any FHA Lenders in the area?

Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

For FHA, I would ask your lender to confirm that they considered the 100 mile rule in calculating DTI.

Hello @Jerry A.Feel free to message me if you have any questions but I would seek out a broker who has access to over 220+ lenders to help do the shopping for you. 

I've spoken to lenders who don't seem to have an issue with it, as long as the DSCR is adequate.

The best way to find your boots on the ground is to use vetted Agents from BiggerPockets with our Featured Agent Program, or Lenders with our Featured Lender Program, or Property Managers with our Featured PM Program, or a Tax Pro with the Featured Tax Professional Program - all from BiggerPockets to help everyone find trusted investor friendly professionals.  

I have seen some properties on MLS that I contact my realtor and they may know right away the reason it isn't selling from showing it previously, or they can review the realtor comments that aren't viewable by the public on MLS.Other potential reasons I have seen properties listed on MLS for a long time. 1) Some investors may not be comfortable inheriting existing tenants.2) It may be it is a class C neighborhood. 3) Structural issues.

If you haven’t already, make sure you’ve documented everything thoroughly—photos, messages, invoices—and highlight the guest’s negligence, like leaving windows and doors open in extreme weather.If you haven’t heard back after asking to escalate, follow up again and politely but firmly request that a senior claims specialist review the case.

Having a solid team around you like agent, lender etc.
