ABL, which is the basis for HML/fix and flip lending, will have different criteria and different focuses than multi-year loans based on cashflow and borrower credit score (long term mortgages).

The decisions and actions you make today can lead to incredible long-term benefits, so it's great that you're starting now.A good starting point is connecting with a lender that aligns with your goals.

Find one that can be custom to your needs, has flexible pricing, no long-term, high-cost memberships, and excellent customer services to determine how to best market to your leads.If you would like a referral code or more information please let me know :)

I’m looking for insights on which states allow you to list a property on the MLS as soon as you have it under contract—but before actually owning it.I know that some states have strict regulations around wholesaling and marketing equitable interest, while others allow it as long as you disclose your intent.

IF you plan on going back someday, and this is the home you want to move back to, then renting it would be a good idea as long as you estimate that it will cover itself, or preferably, cash flow, which it appears that yours will at @ $2K or so per month (after expenses). 

Technology has come a long way, however, having a someone you trust locally will give you peace of mind while leasing your properties.

So long as your original fee to open the account is booked as a personal contribution to your business and all the transactions are business-related, it seems like your best solution until you get back stateside.

In addition to offering "cash for keys" assure them that they can use you as a referral on their next tenant application, or offer them a short term-2 month lease.

the terms of your agreement with the agent will lay that out

I have a house that’s a long term rental upstairs and a medium term downstairs.
