Investment Info:Single-family residence buy & hold investment.

I highly recommend a well-qualified REALTOR who works with investors and knows how to help you best.7.

mDo you have to accept the first applicant that qualifies?

You can roll the 403b’s into a self directed Ira or solo 401k if you qualify.

What I will do is attempt to find a QUALIFIED substitute tenant, credit the original tenant with the rent paid by the new tenant LESS one or two months fee for the extra work and effort, but I will NOT release the original tenant from liability should the substitute tenant default.Look, the bottom line is that renting to tenants is a business, just like any other business.  

You are buying a primary residence so should be able to take advantage of an FHA backed loan.

The smaller builds were harder to come by, too many overlays were put in place and the residents of East Nashville HATE us developers/flippers more than any other location in Nashville.

The DSCR wouldn't include renovation funds unfortunately and property has to be in livable condition to qualify for the DSCR loan .

Would that appreciate slower than single-family residences?

If your spouse qualifies for the Real Estate Professional status, then it will cover both of you.
