@Jordyn Ohsnot enough info to helpbut if you're using a HELOC for the down payment AND getting a loan, then you're probably negative cash flow given that's 100% leveragei would never do that unless i were going to refinance in the short term

These names frequently come up in investor circles because of their reliability.Speak Directly to Their Team: Legitimate lenders will have knowledgeable representatives willing to explain their loan products and processes in detail.

I'm feeling most drawn to a buy and hold rental investing strategy and like the idea of the BRRRR strategy in tandem with VA loans, basically refinancing VA loan backed mortgages to conventional loans once there is 20% equity in the home.

Used houses in the area sell anywhere from $75-125 a square foot.These are long term rentals that I do not plan to sell.I am reading the Rental Property Investing book and implementing the method that focuses on cash flow and that strategy states you need to have $300 cash flow per month, per property.

It’s good to budget for unforeseen expenses.Regarding PMI, it’s worth discussing directly with your loan servicer since many lenders require holding the property for a period or reaching specific equity thresholds before removal.If market rents are $2,200–$2,500, hiring a property manager could help you optimize rent while taking the burden of tenant screening off your plate.

A lot of land is sold on owner terms..

A self-directed IRA or 401k can be a great vehicle for loaning money to others without getting hit with taxes on the interest income.

Reason is a Heloc generally carries a higher rate on a shorter term and "Can Never" be used as an "Asset, or for PITI reserves" which are both required when you buy an investment property. 

Like I mentioned to Eliott, I'm very young and I can't get a loan.

For "Foreign Borrowers" your loans are very limited.
