I would suggest exploring a cash out fixed rate HELOC or fixed second.

Hello John,I have just started also looking into this.

Have already started #2!!

I bet you are starting the call by telling them they are in preforeclosure.

I'm Eric - my wife and I are exploring purchasing our first rental property, ideally in the Pittsburgh area (especially the South Hills).

I've researched them and plan to start using them in my beach market STR soon as I begin to replace needed items.   

I actually work for a mortgage company and am a loan officer myself but as I just started i'm trying to wrap my head around all the programs and markets.My broker doesn't focus on investors so it might be wise to find someone who does and learn from them. 

Hello, everyoneIt's been tough to find a GC for our project: we found 8 teams/companies, and only 5 were GCs, we had 5 bids, we liked the systematic approach of only 3 of them, and none of them still have any time to start the project.

I am also looking to start buying residential properties to manage for myself.

Doubling your units this year sounds like an exciting goal.As an investor and agent based in Myrtle Beach, I'm keen on exploring potential partnerships and offering assistance where possible.
