Quote from @Ehrich Roberts: G’Day,Grateful for any advice in relation to mortgage options in British Columbia where liquid capital in combination with rental income would be accepted towards qualifying for a mortgage. 

It's not worth my time to deal with the hassle of conventional loan anymore, so I don't even consider it as an option.

NAR doesnt, because they dont do any lobbying at the state level.However, some state associations have been involved in this, which is why Im involved in MD and DC. 

@Ryan Dori lots of options besides DSCR. 1 Year income, Asset Depletion, Bank Statements, and P & L only loans. 

I'd be happy to discuss whether or not this would be right for you if you're interested in a lower-interest option vs. a HELOC. 

One of the key challenges I’m facing is understanding the financing options available to someone without Canadian residency or a local credit history.From my research, it seems that a 35% down payment is often required, with interest rates around 7.5-8.5% for non-residents.

Quote from @Sarah Kensinger: Reach out to @Jeff Chisum and see what options you may have for this property. 

If you're open to expanding your options, you may want to check the Columbus OH market. 

It’s definitely smart to evaluate the tax and cost implications of your funding options.

What are other options do we have if we don't have piror experience?
