My agent has been calling appraisers and lenders and its looking like financing will be an issue because there are no other bomb shelter houses in town that have sold with financing.

Looking to explore options for owner occupant lenders outside the conventional limits that borrow in Chicago to high credit/income individuals with under 20% down.

Many of the smaller towns, especially in the midwest, are places that are in decline. 

As an aspiring out-of-state real estate investor located on Long Island, NY, I have been doing some in-depth market research to identify several healthy investor-friendly markets to begin exploring.

If I wasn't in town I just rented out the room that I stayed in on Airbnb, which covered a chunk of travel expense. 

The area is I would say one of the best locations in town.

They wanted to move to the same town as my mom and my mom wants out of the house that needs lots of updating and continued maintenance.  

He'll do the same thing you are wanting to do.I have 22 furnished rentals with 82 beds in this town. 

The town you're refinancing in is relatively small, so it may be hard to find comps. 

HI.So i'm looking to make my first move as an out of town investor.
