Hey Catherine have you heard back at all or gotten any resolution to the issue?

Your major issue in the discussion. 

Any competitive DSCR program is going to be in the 90-day seasoning range for allowing a refinance based on the newly appraised value.Your 9-month seasoning should not be an issue, barring an extremely unique situation (like inheriting a property or having it gifted to you).------------------------------------• 0-6 Months (Delayed Purchase, no Rehab completed) - up to 80% of purchase price• 6+ Months (Cash-Out Refinance, no Rehab completed) - up to 75% of appraised value• 0-3 Months (Cash-out refi, Rehab completed) - 75% of appraised value [good rates]• 3-6 Months (Cash-out refi, Rehab completed) - 75% of appraised value [best rates]

The one issue for most first-time buyers is that these properties will often end up needing to be rehabbed. 

You need to think about not just the potential income but also the potential problems such as city ordinances, state law, insurance, potential eviction issues, etc.

This is an issue in Reno, NV with many multifamily properties where an older owner has not raised the rent in years and their selling agent thinks the property is worth market value, it's not and there is usually lots of deferred maintenance.
