We had a call set up for a Monday in December and by Friday we found the house we wanted to purchase through them. 

Keep in mind that DSCR loans are how most investors have scaled. whether its residential DSCR or commercial DSCR at 5+ units. personally, i like them better. few reasons why:1. seasoning period is only like 10-30 days vs 60days going conventional2. seller max contributions DSCR is 3-6% where conventional its only 2% max3.

I just don't want to run into any problems with the lender when I am about to close on the house.

It says she doesn't need the remainderman's signature to do anything to the house.

The answer is yes, but it is generally found when the owner is also living in at least one unit (aka "House Hacking").

A year ago I recently purchased my first multi family to house hack and I rant into a issue when the seller paid for a electrical upgrade to the home.

Quote from @KT Fissore: we vacancy in one of our single family long term house in leander. 

The front end can sometimes be tedious to get approved by the local housing authority, but rent payments are always timely.

Miraculously, I didn’t lose my shirt, but I broke even on one house and, due to other circumstances, had to walk away from another.

My wife is from a country that does not allow lending or loans to acquire housing.
