A construction-to-perm loan could work if you plan to hold the multifamily long-term, and depending on your market, there may be incentives for multifamily development.

Hi Evan from Sayville, NY-You asked about whether a lender would pay real estate commissions and closing costs with a short sale.I negotiated a lot of short sales after the Great Financial Crisis.Short sales are similar to dealing with a bank owned property accept the bank is trying to avoid taking it back so the terms, specifically an acceptable purchase price, have to be negotiated.The thing I found that was important to negotiate was the lender agreeing to settle without further recourse for the seller.

If I were in your position, I would buy a duplex that has potential for value add, fix it up, live in one unit and rent out the other unit as a medium term rental or long term rental.

REIA is a generic term.

Our market is still great, great pricing, and a solid opportunity to acquire off-markets as i work with wholesale partners, but a very savvy agent that can negotiate well for STR or long term rentals and great with understanding the best possible options for an investment property. 

Or you can go a DSCR route (sometimes with no seasoning) but the terms suck.

If you have scorable US credit, you'll get better terms.

Using simple numbers, assume I want to purchase a $100,000 property using crypto as collateral:- I pay the closing costs with cash- I put down 10% down payment with cash ($10,000) - I utilize a crypto mortgage for the remaining 90% ($90,000) This way, I still keep my crypto and I have a property, both of which may accrue in value over the long-term.

@Dan TrimbleA property can be rented, Long term (LTR), short term rental (STR) or mid-term rental (MTR).

I have multiple lenders that can do 100% financing for the short-term rehab loan, up to 70% ARV for 1-4 unit properties.
