I as a lender as part of settlement had our servicer unwind some negative reporting.As a sidenote I saw a post online somewhere else where someone who had an owner occupied home for several years relocated for work and teh servicer sent a letter telling them they are not in compliance with their loan because it must be owner occupied for the entirety of the loan even though the loan docs say one year....Again, servicer overstepping their bounds

I’d suggest checking out real estate networking events (local or online) like REIAs or BiggerPockets.

You don’t even have to attend some conferences, some will publish a list of their speakers and/or attendees and you could simply reach out directly after researching their firms online.

So, this whole "you must live in the property for 1 year" claim that we see online seems to be completely baseless.

Oil prices remain a huge X factor, and housing prices (at least with respect to rents) are being held back by the most supply EVER being built and coming online here in 2024.

You could take your pay in cash even and let the surplus build up in a wall safe or something.

unfortunately this marketing specialist was NOT a specialist in marketing for real estate businesses, did not understand the unique requirements and characteristics of real estate, and hence implemented their “generic” on line marketing program.
