I would look at their policies and make sure both the coverage and deductibles meet your needs. 

In an industry where trust and reputation are paramount, RAD’s predatory and misleading policies are shocking.Additionally, I will be explaining to the FTC that RAD’s practices meet the definition of “Deceptive Practices” as per the Commission’s Policy Statement on Deception, which prohibits material representations or omissions likely to mislead consumers.On multiple occasions, I was told there would be no issues in accessing my funds.

Looking forward to meeting likeminded people :) 

We try to meet every other Friday at 9am PT and I also set up a whatsapp group for us.

But then it was a nightmare of communication, we soon realized that we had to do a bunch of songs and dances to convince them to sponsor our deal, it took 4 or 5 days for them to make time to sit down with us only to tell us that we needed to schedule another meeting in another 4 or 5 days to get Tyler on the phone and let us try and convince them to sponsor us and by that time someone else was awarded the deal and we lost out.

To avoid going through the same poor experience, keep reading.Even if someone gives you a referral here, do NOT make the mistake of assuming that the PMC will meet your expectations, just because they met the expectations of the referral source.In our experience, the #1 mistake owners make when selecting a Property Management Company (PMC) is ASSUMING instead of CONFIRMING.It's often a case of not doing enough research, as they don't know what they don't know!

This being said, I don't believe we'll be able to meet the income requirements to qualify for a conventional.This leads me to believe hard money or private lender is more the only option to get my foot in the door, use my business to make repairs at very good rates, build some equity then refi once the balloon is due. 

I would start speaking with residential / commercial agents and property management companies close by and get a feeling if something closer by will meet your criteria.

And the best way to start networking is here on BP and attending your local REIA meetings IMO.
