We have attorney's, escrow accounts, and financial payment certifiers, however opening a dialogue somehow feels slimy now...      

But, as a parent, I've come to consider my death as the single most important financial transaction I will ever make, especially with respect to leaving something to my children. 

In order to gain financial freedom I need passive income and lots of it.

I have financed all of my rental property myself the last few years and my wife's DTI never comes up, it's all based on my financials.

My dream has always been to invest in real estate, and I was setting myself up for that financially.

I have equity in my primary residence and have been studying up on biggerpockets.I am working on 2 BRRRRs at the moment.I know everyone approaches this differently.... but how would YOU achieve financial freedom if you were to start over again with a 250k loan?

First Financial Bank is very investor friendly and I believe they will be able to to do everything you need with the exception of having locations outside the Cincinnati market. 

I am absolutely obsessed with real estate, and I cannot wait for the day I obtain financial freedom doing something I love.

Look at the financials.

Spend the next year or two saving, improving your credit and learning everything about real estate, investing and financial management.
