Hi Zafer, as an international investor you can purchase a property without a SS#.

Thinking instead of just buying another primary home, I will find something more affordable to BRRRR or Home Hack into another rental using as little down as possible and then perhaps purchase another rental or two.

This seems great, but I've found them to only lend 80% of the purchase price and to charge a hefty amount of points.

I am not licensed for consumer lending in TX, so I don't have a dog in the hunt with this opinion.

Both FNMA and FHLMC permit this, under the following circumstances: Notes: For all such transfers affecting mortgage loans purchased or securitized by Fannie Mae on or after June 1, 2016, the transferee is not required to occupy the propertya limited liability company (LLC), provided thatthe mortgage loan was purchased or securitized by Fannie Mae on or after June 1, 2016, andthe LLC is controlled by the original borrower or the original borrower owns a majority interest in the LLC, and if the transfer results in a permitted change of occupancy type to an investment property, such change does not violate the security instrument (for example, the 12 month occupancy requirement for a principal residence).The servicer must notify the borrower that a property transferred to an LLC must be transferred back to a natural person prior to any subsequent refinance application in order to meet Fannie Mae’s Selling Guide underwriting requirements.Citation: D1-4.1-02: Allowable Exemptions Due to the Type of Transfer (04/13/2022)Now, you will still have the Note and reporting in your name individually and will still be personally responsible for the mortgage and most likely, the manner of transfer will enable any litigant to pierce the veil of your LLC, but you'll have what you wanted, for whatever reason. 

Caleb Thurston there is the purchase contract between you and the seller.

Angela, refinancing your property at the current lower rate (Today's 15yr fixed purchase rate: 6.8% APR) can fund a down payment for another property, enhancing your portfolio. 

ANOTHER pen and paper analysis, Coffee shop millionaires :) I NEVER use a calculator, no need, welI........I stopped readying after the 1 mill purchased and gross of about 80, NOTHING else matters.

I like the idea of selling shares to pay down the mortgage I'd have on it or use it for the next purchase, maybe a 1031. 

A little bit about my experience in Real Estate… I started a couple years ago doing some house flips in Detroit ( It was a 2 year plan) then decided to sell everything, moved to Washington DC which can’t afford anything in the DMV area but last year I purchased a very nice 3500 SQFT Duplex in Shaker Heights, suburb of Cleveland.
