You may want to find a good agent in the southern NH area as I'm hearing that market is prime for investment with people moving up from MA, but your other markets might be just as solid.Also, since you're already an agent, it's pretty easy to get your reciprocal license for NH or RI.

DSCR loans underwrite to the income of the property, and do not require your personal income, taxes, debt-to-income ratio, etc.Of the 1,100+ loans that our team closed last year, I want to say that only 1% to 2% of those were closed in a borrower's personal name.So, it is pretty irregular for us to process an investment property loan under a personal name.Clients usually opt for closing in their personal name if they simply do not have an LLC established yet. 

What should give you pause though, to reflect upon, is his losing his contractor's license to fraud.
