You also cannot use a second mortgage (from HML/private lender) for a 2-4 unit non owner property. 

It’s great to know there are resources & professionals like you willing to help guide new investors.Looking forward to connecting & continuing this conversation!

Feel free to reach out and we can chat about private lending.

(yes, some of the Non-QM lenders that do DSCR have FDIC-insured deposits BUT the large, private lenders that have thrived in DSCR over the last few years are not FDIC-insured lenders). 

It would lead to less conversions, just keep that in mind.

I would suggest having a conversation to understand why they made the decisions they made.

But with the recent change to depreciation rules on overseas properties, perhaps Japan is worth exploring again.Sorry I don't have much to add, but I've been following this conversation for the past couple of days and figured I'd say "Hello!"

I do know many lawyers that own investment properties themselves and in conversation have found out that most of them represent themselves in court during evictions.

Ever since that conversation I went on a deep dive of research and studying to figure out how to accomplish these wild ambitions of mine.She helped me get my first property when I was 24 years old, which we ended up selling after a few years and using the revenue to purchase another property.

Getting a loan to payoff another loan with a lower interest rate doesn't make any sense. we do private lending and can get double digits returns consistently.
