Also, I like to show them the difference in the $$ they would receive between a traditional offer where they cash-out at closing and a seller financing deal where they get interest income over a period of time.Example:  If the Sales Price is $150K and they own their home free and clear:- Conventional Cash + Bank Financing:  Seller gets $150K at closing.- Seller Financing with offer at $160K, $20K down, 6% interest,  30yr Amortization, 10yr balloon:  Seller Gets $237.8K over 10yrsBy showing the a really solid offer on price PLUS illustrating how much more they can make over time by offering financing, you might be able to open their eyes to the benefits of offering seller financing.Good Luck!

What would be the most efficient way to do this?

Then again, I don't accept VA or FHA loans period, so we wouldn't be having this issue at all.

Super professional and efficient!

High end, high rents, high appreciation only, no slum areas, period! 

During the initial loan period, my goal would be to subdivide the second property (have been given a verbal ok on this by the city zoning)   and then put a prefab up which will also yield $1500/month.   

I talked to them in person, and said; "You've been great tenants for the short period of time I've owned the property.

Im trying to use the brrrr strategie and my mortgage banker told me that I have to put my property under my name (at the beginning I have to buy it under an LLC since it is a requirement from my HML), and after closing put it back under the LLC ; in that scenario do I keep my anonymity or I loss it because the property was under my name for a short period of time? 

Once the house was good enough for the bank to give me a home equity line of credit, I transferred the balances of my debt before the 0% interest period ran out.
