This can help you greatly with the additional depreciation.Ultimately, med to large MF and small 2-4s are totally different products. 

I need something else, but is there another product out there that has the property profile capability?

There is usually a missed opportunity in most markets delivering housing products that are needed but not readily available and the Zillow data most rely upon does not tell this story.Get to know the members of a community, their needs, what steers them away from the housing that's currently available.

Are there lenders that will lend on the product at competitive rates that are similar to current 30 yr sfh amortization?

TBH this seems like a valuable product and the google reviews and FB page is telling of this however the price point is quite steep at almost 10k this product has to work!!!!

Would love to see the finished product, looks like yall did well on the flip!! 

Yes there are products that can up to 80% LTV for DSCR with 6 months reserves.

I know he has gotten creative on the lending side for products used to get the properties. 

We do engineer hardwood and no Lux viynl like our competitors So all these things probably cost me 25k pre house but we have been selling them for 100k higher than Lennar for same sq ft and have created the highest priced development in town. we are approaching 400 a foot for finished product which was unheard of in Canby Oregon.U can see the homes and the finishs if you go to  Ivyridgeestatescanby  dot com. 

Be sure to investigate the varying product types.
