Thanks a lot for the replies @Chris Mason and @Gregory SchwartzOur lender said we can do a bridge loan but its around 11%.. id bring in 20% downpayment max, dont want to put too much personal assets into it and the issue is for yr1 w low rents and renovations its def a monthly -3-4k loss. def want an 8% or lower rateNot sure if lenders are ok with an initial cashflow loss, once its renovated we can have market rents and its a great deal after. it listed at 1.495M and we'd offer 1.2-1.25M. i understand the living in part doesnt necessarily bide well with investment focus, but for us thats a big appeal that its in a nice area to even live in
