There's a lot of lenders that will make you feel stupid or won't explain to you in simple terms.

Believe it our not, we still have a lot of success with Craig's list, though not sure if it'll work with newer build assets.I would try to build relationships with businesses that your residents use, such as pet stores, restaurants, dry cleaners, etc.

For example, if someone suggests Short-Term Rentals (STR) or Mid-Term Rentals (MTR), I can manage them personally since I have the time.I'm open to various strategies, including single-family homes, multi-family properties, or niche markets, as long as they fit the above criteria.What types of properties or markets have you found to offer the best cashflow and ROI?

Goodmorning Johana,Best bet is we refinance the note and see what kind of terms we can get going on this.Typically can close fairly quickly here in texas using hard money notes.

I purchased the property in 2017, I have completely renovated the one bedroom side, which is currently a furnished long-term rental.

Once you get your systems down, you have a real estate business model that you can take to any market and be still be successful.

for example a 4 bedroom 2 bath could work great as a rent-by-room, but would be much tougher to fill as a mid-term rental. 

That's where your lease terms come into play. 

One of the good things about DSCR Lenders is that the guidelines and programs are different and not cookie-cutter 100% equivalent like conventional lenders that all must mirror the GSEs, etc.Most DSCR Lenders will have similar rates and terms and generally similar processes - so generally what will make the "best" one is the best one for your needs - I would focus on any specialties or niches - like short term rentals, if you do multifamily or mixed use, BRRRR Method or focus in on a specific market - find someone who specializes and has a good track record in that niche or area

I think a good amount of STR and MTR investors are pivoting to long term rentals thus increasing the number of available units adding downward pressure on rent prices.
