I have worked with EasyStreet in the past and have closed loans for my clients using their program.At this time, I am currently using a different program for short-term rental purchases and it has been performing really well this year.

This will get you experience in remodels and much lower down side than a normal flip because you are literally living in the house (so you know exactly what is going on and 0 travel time) and you are utilizing a low down payment, low rate program like a VA loan.

This criteria is for 1-4 and 5-8 unit programs.

@Christopher Phillips   maybe i'm reading this wrong, or it works differently in NY, but a 6% seller concession normally means the seller is giving the buyer 6% of the purchase price to use however they want in the transaction - be that for closing costs or principal reduction or down payment, whatevs.A seller typically doesn't have a say of what can and can't be included in the borrowed amount, that's up to the lender and the loan program. 

So, I don't know if it is a function of their management or a function of the investors they manage for, but tenants have a negative perception of their properties.  

Hi Sean, There are programs available for first time investors.

Hi Rene, the programs that I often utilize for clients are capping cash-out refinances at 75% LTV and rate/term refinances at 80% LTV.
