You don't need the huge fridges and ranges untill you get to a higher price point IMO...

Hey @Joy Daniels, I read everything I can all the time.I read a few blogs that go over products and some design.

I've had lenders offer products I didn't know were out there for buying certain types of properties as well.

Great tools that get updated regularly.I am on the lending side of things and would be happy to hop on a call with you anytime to discuss financial strategies and help answer any questions you may have about nearly any loan product available to help you on your journey, even if they are not products my capital partners offer.We are all here to help you learn and grow.

This is limiting my options.I have never utilized the multifamily lending products offered by Fannie, Freddie, etc., so I would be interested to a) hear other BP members' lender recommendations for this sized property and also b) other members' experiences working with Fannie, Freddie, etc.

For this first property, looking for something in the $100k-200k range.

Depending on the loan product, you may be able to exclude business debt once the business has paid the debt directly for 12 months.The income and losses related to the operation of the entity will affect the income side of your DTI (like Jay explained) if you own 25% or more of the entity.

Let me know if you’d like specific product suggestions—I’d be happy to help! 

I think its rare you can take a model you're doing in this are or product and just move it somewhere else or on to some other product.To me, If you have a niche that works and you're good at it and the numbers are strong,  I believe you should put everything you have into that business model and grow it and grow it fast while the getting is good.
