Be upfront about what you're trying to accomplish and make sure they know you're trying to establish a long-term lending relationship with a bank that can help you meet your goals over the long term.Good luck.

I'm in a 1031 exchange trying to find a 8-30 lunit here ocally$100-$180k range/unit depending on location and conditionI'm from Los Angeles so it would be nice to meet some local active BPers.Thanks

But knowing what the "catch" for such investments is could be helpful in my initial meeting with the developer.

Looking forward to meeting you all on the forms!

Invest in business cards and pass them to everyone you meet.

So, the issue will be brought before the committee at a future meeting. 

So far we have not had a tenant, that is established - more than a couple months in the unit, not be able to meet their rent commitment using this criteria.We have some tenants in our C area that would not have qualified if we used 3X. 

Now I hope to meet the closing date before the rate lock expires.  

Nice to meet you! 

If the property meets the certain guidelines set up, then you can purchase the property with a hard money loan.
