FHA now allows us to count rental income from an ADU (additional dwelling unit) to help borrowers qualify.

(Especially a 2-4 unit.)Do they have friends/relatives/co-workers that would rent rooms from them if they bought a property to show more income?

Denver Union Station Project (Colorado): The city exchanged several smaller parcels of land with a private developer, who in turn constructed a mixed-use development that included retail, office space, and residential units.

Our property managers are trying to get us to sign a new clause stating that if we want first right of refusal to do our own maintenance on our properties (and not just have them handle it automatically), that we need to respond to any maintenance request within 24 hours (telling them we want to do it or telling them they can do it), complete the work in 7 days (if we say we want to do it), and do unit turnovers in 2 weeks. 

Start by leveraging what you already have—consider tapping into equity through a HELOC, house hacking again with an FHA loan, or increasing cash flow by converting a unit to a short-term rental.

I was also lucky to get someone who I could pay to show a house or open up a unit for a handyman. 

You can do a DSCR loan easily with anything 1-4 unit residential.

It is just laughable when places have regulations like a homeowner can only have a certain number of STR listings by the law but these big name companies suddenly start with 20 units in the first month.

Just get on Airbnb and see who are the property managers doing most of the units in the area and search for them on google. 

After going through appraisal and all the applications process, they rejected the loans, over how HOA consists of too many investors vs homeowners, I then picked another unit in different community, did the same process, then they rejected the another execuse over HOA, It costs me several months times of refi and I requested the refund of appraisal fee and didn't get this refund.
