I read quite a bit about Hard Money and Private Money Lenders, as well as the pro's and con's of using them.

I noticed the assignment contracts only have information about the wholesale fee not the price for the property.

The way it’s written, it’s open ended and I can get him to fax me a rejection notice at the Settlement Table.  

However, if they wanted to justify it, I'm sure the justification is that renters cause more problems than owners; renters tend to live then shorter periods of time and there are expenses when someone moves in/out such as extra trash pick-ups, programming them into an entry system, cleaning costs as the move in/out can be messy around the building, light damage to the building, scheduling of the freight elevator, cost of providing additional notices as now the tenant and owner need to receive copies, etc.

After some small due diligence I noticed the units are spread between 4 buildings in which 2 of each share a common hallway/entrance.

Look at Legal Notices under the classified section.

I’ve had a lot of difficulty getting showings in tenant occupied multi family houses because of the disruption/ notice to the tenants required.

A little bit of everything: refi’ing, private money, friends and family loans for down payments, seller financing, SBA loan, HELOCs, business LOCs, and most recently, cashing out the 401K for a grand slam deal. 

Feel free to private message me and I'll send you my details, website, etc.  

@Angela Yan We were planning on converting one of our rentals in the city into an Airbnb before the rules went into effect last year, as a long-term tenant gave us notice.
