Last year, I purchased my first multi-family property in Holts Summit Missouri.

In Gary Keller’s book, Shift, he lists 25 creative options that are most common, but barely scratch the surface:- Seller Contributions- Seller-Funded Permanent Buydown- Seller-Funded Temporary Buydown- Owner Financing- Contract For Deed- Seller Second Lease Option And Lease Purchase- Seller-Assisted Down Payment- Wraparound And Assumable Mortgage- Gift Funding- Selling And Refinancing Existing Assets- Non-Occupied Co-Borrowers- Using 401(K)- Temporary IRA Transfer- Pledged Asset Mortgage- Equity Transfer And Bridge Loan- Employer-Assisted Mortgage- Lender-Funded Buydown- Fannie Mae’s “My Community Mortgage”- Running Scenarios With Automated Underwriting Systems- Adjusting Amortization Period To Lower Payment- Adjusting Interest Rates To Cover Closing Costs- State, Province, And Local Grant Or Bond Programs- Mortgage Credit Certificate- Private LendingHe said these options barely scratch the surface.

Purchase price: $95,000 Cash invested: $30,000This was my first rehab.

Otherwise, you'd need to based the financing based off of the purchase price (possibly plus renovation).Since Conventional rates change daily and the rates have jumped recently, DSCR rates actually are in similar range at the moment.

I am currently on the journey to purchase my first property at 19 and have hit a roadblock.

This is in all cases, not specific to this purchase.  

National Parks are a great place to purchase a STR since they'll always draw visitors.

I am considering purchasing a condo in Stamford, CT, to use as my personal residence, as I'll need to travel to CT frequently—about 50% of the time.

Hey all,I bought my first home (currently my primary) last year and am now looking to purchase a Long term rental property.

I know of at least 4 instances where investors purchased properties with agent representation that had intentions of doing an STR only to be denied a permit by the city after closing.Let me know if you have any other questions.
