Any investors/ buyers of mine looking for a vacation rental in Colorado tens to have dual goals -- investment and personal use.

We've done this personally on refis with just a lease,  but through a local credit union so I'm sure it's different. it seems like there is a lot of potential problems this would create for the owner, tenant and PM if the lenders have to have a signed lease and all funds upfront, before the loan is closed.

I come across a person who has a commercial strip of 7 stores free and clear worth around 2 Mil.

I can’t work with interest due to personal preferences so I don’t know what option will work the best for me. 

The seller has pulled back and is not interested in meeting in person at this time.

It's for a duplex (no personal use) DTI and everything is good.

I would be delighted to meet with you in person to discuss any opportunities for involvement or to simply introduce myself further.

My personal advice is cut your losses and move on. 

Hi Tip, I personally love Columbus Ohio and as someone who works with a lot of out of state investors - there's so many catalysts for why you should invest here.

I’ve only sold 2 personal residences and I sold them both myself.
