I am specifically thinking in terms of a partnership and/or private money lending situation, but am interested to hear any experience whatsoever!

I hacked the house a few years ago to help with mortgage payments.

Brokers with exceptional communication, negotiation and experience will be at a premium, especially those with finance or mortgage experience for creative structuring and/or established relationships with listing brokers. 

You can make this look better by using a HELOC or 2nd mortgage, you don't necessarily have to sell. 

And some mls fields are private, cannot share with unlicensed people.

Now you have a brand new property that has no mortgage, rents for $2,000 a month with $300 a month in taxes, insurance ect…profit $1,700 a month.

You don't need to move a few or less mortgaged properties into an LLC.

Our mortgage payments started at $2300, but due to increasing property taxes and insurance, they have alarmingly risen to just under $3300.

Keith Andrews Home Team was absolutely fantastic, and Mark Kong at Evolution Mortgage was the best lender I've ever worked with, particularly with VA loans!

Hi @Wyatt Fike, when it comes to buying a house, the lender has one primary focus when it comes to qualifying you for a mortgage.
