I spoke with the title company who is still helping us wrap up the set-up of a servicing company, and she confirmed that they would be responsible for the principal / interest for Nov and Dec, while we are responsible for the escrow shortage balance (as agreed upon).Not sure how it was missed - not my favorite title company to work with.

Sounds like you are getting hit with a lender who has overlays and possibly miscommunication between the loan officer/processor to the underwriter.

Use tools like the VA loan for house hacking and your Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH) to cover living costs while building equity.

Most cost segregation study companies provide the quote for free.

So if I understand, you would get a loan the normal way and then the bank trust is an extra fee that comes along with owning the property in Mexico?

House Hacking using the VA loan to live on one side while renting the other is great.2.

Thank youBest,SathishkumarI would potentially try starting out being a cohost in that local area or work for a cohost company .

@Brian Rocha It’s clear why most lenders insist on including rehab funds in the loan, and all of our partner banks follow this practice for fix-and-flip loans to minimize risk and meet securitization standards.

So the though Hey I have an 800 fico and I should get a loan does not work.

@Dwane Twente so this is basically a rental arbitrage company.
