My question is, are there any rules/restrictions that lenders have when financing your 2nd, 3rd, and 4th investment property?

I quote from the article at www.themortgagereports.com, which can be found by going to the linked thread I mention earlier in this thread:"Delayed Financing Rule mortgages are subject to a 70% loan-to-value limit except for investors with more than 4 properties financed.For investors with more than 4 properties financed, the Delayed Financing Rule LTV limit is 65%, and other 5-10 Property Program restrictions apply, too."

Unfortunately since last year this program tightened up a bit and showing signs of becoming a very hard bargain.

The big problem he'll run into are the banks where there is a resale restriction -- in those cases, he won't be able to wholesale unless he takes title in a trust or business entity and assigns/sells the trust/entity.

Lots of little things to tighten up before I depart.

My broker is very good at getting answers to questions i have thrown at him in the past, so i am a little discouraged.I talked to a rep at Hungtington bank, and she said she was unaware of that restriction.

Right now it is hard for many to get one, but if the restrictions ease up, prices will go up.

The HOA lawyer is from the bottom of the lawyer barrel, they are a collection of real toileteers and will lie and cheat at the drop of a hat.You better have excellent documentation about your issue, otherwise the HOA lawyer will simply lie to the court and probably get away with it.One of the repulsive things about HOA litigation is that the "presumption of validity" that goes with deed restrictions is currently being extended to HOAs themselves.

I’m guessing that you’re not trying to evade taxes but are probably doing this to avoid deed restrictions?

--restrictions/extra charges on showings?
