It’s a beautiful custom home, one of the nicest in a so-so Oakland neighborhood ("biggest house in not the best area").Here’s the context:- Bought in 2014 for $590k, appraised in 2022 for $1.2m.- Located in a C- to B neighborhood—close to amenities and mostly safe but not for everyone.- Converted to a rental in 2024; initially rented for $4,750/month, but tenants moved out, and the soft Bay Area rental market has made filling it challenging.

Taking a boiler plate contract is not going to be helpful as they're typically customized to people's needs/wants.

If they are able to remove the term it will be dependent on the loan underwriting requirements, not because they want to keep you as a banking customer.

People responded by explaining that residential mortgage lenders are looking for US-based customers, who have their residence, income and assets in the States.How do they view foreign debt?

Obviously, using the online listing page at ALE solutions is different than a cold email, and I am referring to the latter.That brings up an obvious question: how do you develop those leads, then?

Ironically, platforms designed for real estate (Zillow, Apartments.com, Rentler, etc.) produce very few tenants for me, compared to FB Marketplace (and I also find a lot of their functionality to be user un-friendly, from the landlord side). ...you'd think that platforms custom-made for real estate would make the process a snap for landlords, but it takes me a lot longer to post and manage rental listings on Zillow or Rentler than it did on Craigslist.

Extended kitchen cabinets to ceiling to help look custom, changed all light fixtures, added cabinet hardware to cabinets, added accent walls, added swing to front porch.

My plans in Charelston SC that tend to be custom will take 60 to 90 days and cost 10k or so. but they still get check sheets to..
