I am thinking about using hard money to fund my new build but once completed refinancing thru a traditional bank to get a longer loan and a more favorable rate. find. lender that does both. easy street we are talking to for several new build triplexes for clients in columbus. they go up to 85% LTC and then can refinance on a DSCR. they want to see you win and do way more transaction volume than smaller local or regional funds.

I called Zillow and they told me they don't handle lease cancellation or changes but suggested to contact local attorney (I am in Texas/Austin). a) Take some penality and allow tenant to break the lease. b) take re-letting fees, list the house again and current tenant is bound to honor until it gets leased.For both a) and b) I will still have to contact attorney as Zillow does not let me cancel the lease but only mark the lease cancelled once it is done. 

As a local investor and agent here in Columbus, let me know if you have any questions or want to connect!

Also, attending your local REI meetups is a great way to connect with experienced investors.

It is the local REIA and there is a multi-family meet up once a month (in addition to other niche meetings).

It's never guaranteed that the local government will approve anything done on the property.  

I also joined a local team that has an office so I have the added plus of being able to go work and be surrounded by colleagues when I want and need extra support.
