I can comment on what you need to do for you to be compliant and take all the advantages when things hit the fan - court, liability, lien, or simply legality wise -, but hiring based on workmanship and review based is not something I could tell.

However, these initial 12 months are required in order to be compliant with the terms of the loan. 

Based off everything I've learned on these forums, I will plan to stay as compliant as I know how; I do have another investment property with tenants, so I am somewhat experienced. 

In multis, assume the seller and the Realtor are lying (okay, making huge mistakes).You are assuming you can manage and be compliant with a ton of regulations, social interactions, collection requirements and maintenance issues beyond the scope of a SFD/house.

Will an investor friendly bank extend a LOC loan (or something of the sort) to me personally and still be DF compliant under this circumstance? 

One POA is 110% Cooperative the other one is non-compliant whatsoever.

I would look on Rentometer and make the mortgage payment to my buyer a few hundred dollars more than what it would rent for and calculate the mortgage on a 30 year fixed while collecting the info necessary to be compliant with Dodd-Frank. 

Not so much setting the actual corp up i know all that can be done online, more so on the structure in order to compliant for tax purposes.   

If the property is going to be a homestead or otherwise the buyer's home, hire an residential Mortgage Loan Originator (RMLO) to keep you compliant with Dod-Frank etc.you're wrap-around mortgage should explain to your buyer's everything about your underlying debt.Find a private lender to replace the current lender...get more favorable terms than the 1 yr balloon. the key to almost every investment strategy is private money with favorable terms.

This is the compliant of many agents under Park Mason.
