All that "certainly yes" cheerleading (and other Grant Cardone-style baseless crap) is best ignored.Read this older thread that states my opinion on the issue:https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/51/topics/1124042-tax-d... 

Just some food for thought.Typically from my experience, a lender that is willing to do a "blanket" style loan, lends from their own portfolio.

I'm not in NYS, but in WA you can google the law and find what is required.Going off the top of my head here for WA:Deliver a copy personally to the tenant.If the tenant is absent, by leaving a copy with someone of suitable age and discretion at the rental unit AND mailing a copy.If neither of the above are possible, by posting a copy on a conspicuous place on the premises, handing a copy to any person living there, AND mailing a copy.There's also a form that goes along with notifying them.

But, as you pointed out, the product is money, and keeping the conversation focused on the exchange of value is key for others.It’s all about knowing your audience, and it sounds like your no-nonsense style has been incredibly effective. 

The rent to price ratio's look really good for Texas (as well as compared to national levels) and my models cashflow at 20% down if the rate is at 5% or lower, really at the current rates its more breakeven but there Refi potential over the coming years and there is appreciation upside in my opinion with the new Tom Thumb, HEB, and Target breaking ground this year making Forney a more classic style suburb.

you can do a hard money style loan where its 50% down on the land and lender provides 100% of construction 

For anyone know of where you can go and get financial education in a camping style format?
