I was wondering where would be the best place to get a loan for a buy-and-hold property for the first time investor I want to see what I can get pre-approved for so I know my price range I can look at any advice is appreciated thank you for your time

I’m ultimately interested in focusing on buy and hold for the long run with single family up to 4-plexes to get a start and build experience.

If you hold it for 30 years and pay off the note, you will be in an amazing position, but most of us are holding properties that long.

I do a lot of buy and holds in mercer county.  

If you're thinking of buy and hold its ok to go it alone and pay an advisor to help you.  

Or just mention my plans for a buy and hold next year?

I bought a couple of lots in a tax-deed auction, and when I went to sell them a year and a half later, I found that all the title companies I called have new policies that require a person to hold the property for 3-5 years or more before the title was regarded as clear.

If not, then just charge it to your experience, you don't have hold over your unlicensed contractor.

If not, then your annual returns will be dragged down the longer you hold it.  

With my research, I am most interested in buy and hold and maybe some flipping.
