Hi AllI'm in Goergia and trying to find the best lenders offering high LTV on primary residence as well as investment properties.

Also if there are any local mentors in my area who would be willing and interested in helping me out I also am connected to Michigan as well! 

I am curious about how working with the city has been as well as the time frames it took to complete a project.

With including the units as potential rental income as well?

For finding my first properties, word of mouth and local networking worked well, plus reaching out to hosts on Airbnb with personalized messages.When pitching, focus on how you’ll add value (like boosting reviews or optimizing pricing) and avoid coming off too salesy.

There are a couple of resources that I like and my clients use as well:1.

I am so glad it was a smooth process, and I am looking forward to working with you on your next deal as well!

Well said!

They have always returned principal when requested in the past, as well. 

Quote from @John O'Leary: Hi Joe,We’ve worked with several PadSplit investors to secure financing, and while these properties cash flow really really well, they do come with challenges—tenant turnover/issues and being the biggest ones.One hurdle we’ve seen is that getting financing can be tricky since PadSplit rentals are still considered non-conforming by most lenders.
