You may also want to look at a cash out refinance to eliminate one or more Heloc or a few credit cards to lower your DTI and outgoing monthly debts.A heloc is a risk since its an open end mortgage like a credit card which carries a higher risk versus a 30 year mortgage.

Some of the projects were with a local partner as well and then the managing chores were split between us.The lending perspective was stiff in the beginning, as I didn't have any experience at all, also no credit score, and that project was only by myself, so the leverage was low, but I could work on a low-price property to start.Fast forward 5 years, I have built a credit score with 2 credit cards under my ITIN of more than 650, and done 4 properties as experience.

That typically results in a higher payment and an open end mortgage (Credit card) versus cash in the bank that can act as an Asset and PITI reserves where a Heloc cannot.Feel free to reach out if you have any questions, I enjoy helping and talking REI.

One day I went into my business and spent four hours dealing with a customer's debit card.

On the forth month I did get the four months in one lump payment which felt great, but really was just refilling my account or paying off my credit card which was stressful.

A SSN is typically issued with “permanent residence” (green card) meaning the person becomes legally allowed to live and work in the US.
