Or you could go directly to the HR departments of these companies. 

Connecting with them directly will help you get a better sense of voucher amounts, inspection standards, and timelines.

But 1) you're likely grandfathered in if they ever do, and 2) there are no talks or indications of changing directions on their stance. 3) long term rentals don't cashflow here, but our appreciation is super high.

I would suggest you getting on mailing lists of seller carry back notes and then market to those folks directly I get letters all the time on my seller carry backs that I do.

I am adding about 20 more this year, but there's one small pocket I'm struggling with the financing on (honestly, due to Huntington Bank dragging their feet on items, etc.), so I'm seeing what other options there may be. 

An assistant can do most everything that you need done and they work directly for you rather than a property management company that has several clients and you’re just one of them.Also, again, depending on the location of your properties, have you considered doing a lease with the option to buy?  

This way the broker can search hundreds of lenders (Including Easy Street Capital) instead of just hoping that one lender can get you a good deal.A direct lender can work very well for Conventional loans, but if you were hoping to get a good deal I would look elsewhere Or you could search for hundreds of lenders here on BP or online yourself and avoid paying broker fees..

You can target lists through a multiple list source sites, skip trace those lists, then market to those buyers through cold calling, SMS campaigns, direct mailers, and/or door knocking; amongst other routes.
