This is what I am encountering, in the current Mortgage Industry.If you think you will go FHA, Conventional, FHA 203k, etc. and then Quit Claim the property, to a Corporate Entity, or a Land Trust you run the risk of the lender discovering a Title Transfer occurred and activating the "Acceleration Clause" or "Due on Sale Clause" that requires the loan to be paid in full, within 'x' number of days.

The have interviews, tips, and tricks to getting started.

Hope this helps. 

It’s exciting to hear about your plans to dive into this field, and Chicago is a fantastic market to explore once you move there.It sounds like you’re on the right track with your interest in House Hacking, Mid-Term Rentals, Short-Term Rentals, and the BRRRR strategy.

This is normal and nothing to be overly concerned about.
