A good PM should protect your interests and anticipate potential risks like this.Let me know how it all shakes out!

Hi Dean - we had access to a DSCR product until a couple weeks ago - it's currently paused, per my conversation with one of the loan brokers I work with. 

@Scott Trench   ​    Interesting.

I want to change that this year. 

This acronym stands for Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, and Repeat.

If you have extra cash at the end of the month, then do double up payments on the mortgages so the principle is reduced and this will increase your heloc room.

I assumed this would be the case because the rest of what California has to offer kind of sucks.

I would also ask my attorney about the advisability recording a copy of the contract or an affidavit of interest as I think it's possible the seller may have found someone willing to pay more for the property and I'd want a third party to be aware of my contract interest in the property.Lastly, I'd make sure the attorney I hired specializes in real property law, particularly in the county where the property lies.

This could give you the cash you need for the purchase and also eliminate your personal guarantee for the loans.
