Quote from @Aj Green: Hey,(Posting again as I sign today so it is urgent)Is there any cheaper lender than a 6.75% for an Ohio investment property.No brokers fees, 110k, no points, 760+ credit score, 20% down, 140k value, no realtors, single family, rent covers mortgage, 30 year term fixed.Thanks for the help!

I don't remember the exact cost when I did it but I remember thinking it was cheaper than expected.I didn't see a comment mentioning that you should just include utilities in the rent and increase it based off that so I'll be that guy.

So you could see about going to auctions and winning a "cheaper" bid on a property there, if you decide that's an option.

We will do multiple cheaper studies in this case, or bulk them all together into one.

He built as multi family cosmetic rehab will be a lot cheaper.

Duplex can always add additional units via the ADU laws. 8) Related to number 1, purchasing a property with an existing ADU is cheaper than buying a property and adding an ADU.

Price to rent ratios have skyrocketed everywhere and it's pretty unlikely rent will ever get to a point where it evens back out because at those levels it's just as cheap/cheaper to buy (not to mention most renters can't afford anything like that). 

And how do I roll this into a cheaper mortgage (my dti would be too bad for another conventional).Maybe a lender would be able to consider the electric "working" with the proper inspection?

However, if single-family homes prove financially viable, I’m happy to continue building in that niche.Since these homes and projects are significantly cheaper than my market, the risk is relatively lower for me and can do at least two at a time.The ChallengeOne of the biggest hurdles is finding reliable contractors and subcontractors in the area.
