Conventional financing with bank How did you add value to the deal?

I too am confused by the “It won’t look consistent to the tenant or to the accountant.”

Hi There-Some feedback would be great- Do you Sell the house yourself or do you engage another Realtor to do the sale and keep it at arms length in order to reduce any liability?

That might allow you to find financing. 

Quote from @Devin James: True, but it's foolish to invest without a basic understanding of how to purchase and manage the investment.

Feel free to reach out to see what we can offer.

You may want to give it a look.

Each bedroom shouldn't need to go through the common area to exit the building4.

It is in a northern MI Downtown area (opp zone) in a county seat with 2 hospitals, had it re-zoned to mixed use, and is considered blighted which makes it eligible for MEDC funding of up to 50% of project cost.It is 8k sqft (4,000 each level) with the lower level being a walkout (top level is street level with sloped drive down to the rear of the building).
