Has anyone here been successful in permitting a conversion?

I'll send you a Connect request to get the conversation going!

Without getting into the weeds of our conversation, their response was as expected highlighting their service and ability to facilitate a loan.

Quote from @Mohsin Ali: Hi all, I'm joining this conversation late. 

There's a reason that people try to buy properties off-market and that is because you can find sellers who care more about terms than maximizing returns.So start with a conversation: you already presumably have some rapport since it's your landlord and you've spoken before.

I haven't booked anyone from FF this past year, but I might keep one unit open to keep the conversation open.

However, if you sell instead of rebuilding, the IRS may include part of the payout in your taxable gain unless reinvested under the §1033 involuntary conversion rules, which allow you to defer taxes by purchasing a similar property within two years.If the property was your primary residence, you may exclude up to $250K (single) or $500K (married) of gains if you lived there for at least 2 of the last 5 years, likely resulting in no taxes owed.

Hi Dean - we had access to a DSCR product until a couple weeks ago - it's currently paused, per my conversation with one of the loan brokers I work with. 

looking forward for our conversation!

Again, this is a conversation to have with your accountant to ensure the benefits would outweigh the costs.Another misconception is that there is little value in a cost segregation study for properties that do not have a lot of personal property in them or very little interior build out, such as industrial warehouses.
