Typically this means they will take longer to close, may not have all the information for the companies they work with, and most hard money brokers get their money by taking an existing product and adding extra points to pay their fee.What is your investor success rate?

Please, no solicitations.Use the renovation/acquisition loan products that require 10% down on the purchase and you should be able to get a few going at a time.

Then you could use a DSCR product to cash out refinance into a 30-year mortgage.3.

But you are absolutely demonstrating your intent to hold for productive investment use.

They sell a 4 unit for close to 1 million dollars close to Jacksonville. they want 250k or 300k down. there's no upside. you can google the properties on biggerpockets and there isn't a lot of satisfaction. it's a slow return and get rich slow strategy. our focus is always as a builder to add maximum value, lower cost as low as possible, build and rent and build and sell the same product and raise prices to help investors out. we have a large market share and large purchasing power in our market in columbus ohio. the one strategy I never liked about turnkey new build brokerage companies like them and build2rent or others is they don't really build close to urban centers and most are single family homes. the numbers don't work on single family homes. if single family was the way to go more companies would be doing it. but by far the most common type of new construction built is three story walk up apartments.

I have a pretty large emergency fund in place for those properties, but I wonder if that capital could be better employed elsewhere (potentially acquire another property).  

In my experience that either means there is something prohibitive in the zoning, or there simply is not much demand for that sort of product if most people either go with an apartment in a large complex or rent a SFR.

Quote from @Andrew Steffens: I am curious what products exist?

What type of properties are you looking to acquire, SF, 2-4 MF, or 5+ MF?
