The flyer you linked is about food safety rules by the Department of Agriculture and states they only allow true service animals in food establishments.

.: In a prior post from about 2 months ago, Kerry Malarkey and Nathan Gesner mentioned a small landlord is exempt from FHA requirements requiring the acceptance of emotional support & assistance animals if one of the following is true:"Owner-occupied buildings Properties with four units or fewer that are owned and lived in by the ownerSingle-family homes Homes that are sold or rented without a broker by the owner, as long as the owner doesn't own more than three at once" (Quote from Nathan's reply))https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/52/topics/1219359-pitbu...Given this, if a landlord does qualify for the exemption, what exactly does this mean? 

i understand a true duplex might be a lot more expensive, but i think it's at least worth continuing to research and keeping an eye on.and sticking to my original point, OOS can be tough. 

If the deal sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

Nothing worth it is every easy when you start out....if it seems too good to be true, it probably is. 

That claim can not be even remotely true.  

This isn't true. there are lenders that do 80% cash out refinances - DSCR isn't the only loan type you can close in an LLC to get 80% cash out...and there are many lenders where investors can get 0% origination fees --- keyword here is "lenders", not brokers.

Sounds weird, but true.

Assuming that's true, I would recommend looking for a replacement property (or properties - you can purchase multiple in the exchange) with value of at least $725K (selling price).  

I'm new the notes world and frankly the 3-year locked in PPR preferred return of 12% seems almost too good to be true if they in 16 years have never missed a payment or failed to repay principal.
