I just completed my 20 hour course for my Illinois Mortgage Lending License and the final step is taking the state exam.

There are more favorable rates out there of course. 

It is easier to train assistants and staff if you are only doing STR or LTR.

They said they will not take rent into consideration and declined me because they are using the mortgage of that new loan, my current mortgage and HELOC payment off of just my income now, which is dumb because of course I can’t qualify.  

Im trained enough myself at this point in QBO, but my bookeeper still does the more complex entries (Loans, capital balances, reconciliation, etc) I just do the data entries for expenses. 

Of course my nosey self had to go look up your rental property.

As most investor's of course want 15-20% ROI.

If they don't contact us within 10 days, we can change the locks and take possession.And, of course, if you choose you can file for collections on them.

Of course we all have to start somewhere but I tell everyone I do business with regardless if it's with me or someone else I always recommend them to build a portfolio.

Of course like all meetups there are people there who have gone every month for probably 10 years and never done a deal.
