Local market trends: Could you share any insights into current rental market conditions and future growth projections for these areas?

Currently, I have 11 doors under contract. 

Aim for a path that benefits the current tenants if it's worth it.

Many of these lenders allowing 2nds behind them are more expensive capital (10's - 13's in our current market [high rates - but now showing signs of coming down]).

I'm currently in process of purchasing a home in Kyoto, Japan and wanted to connect with other US Citizens who also own investment properties in Japan.

Lenders do not look at your personal income or debt and will use the current market rent or lease (up to 120% if the lease is significantly higher than market rent or vice versa) as qualifying income.

.- Collect Tax Certificate to verify Property Taxes are Paid- Get a current statement from the seller to verify the existing balance, if they are delinquent, you can get the bank on the phone to verify the amount to make the loan current.- Review the loan documents, there is most likely a due on sale clause, which is why you won't find a title company to process these for you.

There's no cost to use, and currently $25 fee for applicants. 

They’re currently 100% occupied, and I’m cash-flowing around $8,500 a month.

@Chantelle LewisRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.
