They’re asset-based, meaning the loan is secured by the property itself, and they often have quicker approval times but higher interest rates (think 10–15%) and fees.

To combat this: market the property well, be transparent, secure a great flood insurance rate so a buyer can know the cost and be able to transfer the policy.5) no flood zone AE does nothing to rental rates6) if the insurance rate seems high then get a flood cert and maybe it will decrease.

Most work with us, some do not.Be careful also as they may tell you to keep their security deposit as last month's rent.

What I love about them is they will even accept the higher lease amounts over the market rents if we can show first month's rent and security deposit.

I position my inspections as 'planning for future repairs/improvements' which mitigates that whole 'he's here to get my security deposit' mindset.And, I would rather have the tenant with me than to have him later claim that something was broken during the inspection.  

For any of these real estate funds that have guaranteed rates of returns for set periods I would want to understand how my investment is secured.

Security investigated to find the renters still at our house.

When I started, I  submitted great deals to a corporate cash buyer,  they went behind my back and secure the deals with the sellers, after the  contracts expired.

@Justin FondrenIf your credit score is in the 700–730 range, you're in a great position to secure favorable loan terms.

Which one is more appealing - continuing to own the house or the security of that much cash/liquidity?
