you need to talk to 10 lenders before you make any decisions. you won't be qualified for ground up construction without the experience. there's no such thing as sweat equity for general contracting. if you've never built a home how can you do it? 

Biggest advice is to make sure you place a great qualified tenant with a thorough application! 

Additionally, you may qualify for the owner occupant exemption if you live in a unit within a 4-plex (or smaller), where you would technically be exempt from the fair housing act, but this exemption may not extend to your individual state or municipality. 

I qualified for 250K.

But yes, if you can prove that your LLC does X amount of business in a year you can qualify. 

@Zachary LuchsStep 1: Get Pre-Qualified by a Lender.Step 2: Find an investor friendly agent who also owns rental properties in the market you are interested in, a good agent will also either manage properties for you or will have a relationship with a property manager that they can set you up with.

I had a conventional loan and 3% DP so it was tricky finding something that met the condition requirements; you will be shocked what qualifies.

A NARPM member property manager ensures your property is managed by a qualified, ethical, and professional expert, maximizing your investment return while minimizing management hassles and risks.

We're placing great qualified tenants on median in 12 days right now! 

The receiving party should refinance the property (Assuming they qualify) into their name only with a new loan.
