Using smart financing like portfolio loans or refinancing after value-add improvements can free up your capital for future investments.Diversify property types – I’ve seen investors get stuck in one type of rental (e.g., single-family homes) and miss out on opportunities in duplexes or small multifamily.

Days on market is nearly the same as this time in 2023, showing a reliably strong seller's market, yet not as competitive and crazy as COVID-era.

Hello all, I am in the process of purchasing a 2 family home using a DSCR loan.

If not, how do I avoid this?

Does anyone have advice or contacts for a lender that would be able to help us out in this situation?

I'm new to BP and trying to build a team as I dive into more frequent and long-term profitable REI.I've been doing SFH rentals over the last 15-18 years, but it's all been very traditionally financed (ho hum, 30 yr fixed) and as such has limited my ability to invest more frequently, and grow a portfolio.I'm here to learn how to use more creative financing strategies (private money lending, Sub-to, seller financing) to acquire 2-3 units (duplexes, tri) and 5+ multifamily properties. 

For example, could this potentially be a cash boom opportunity within the adjacent areas such as Kenosha and Mount Pleasant where one could buy low, sell high within a relatively short amount of time through appreciation, or would the presence of Microsoft increase cash flow in those areas?

My Milwaukee clients aren't using that method, but as you know it can help with closing deals quickly.

I did STR in a duplex starting back in 2017 and managed for others in North Conway, Ive since converted to all long term tenants and happy i did so... unless your property has something unique or a "rare" amenity.... like, sleeps 30, I honestly would not waste any energy on it in the north Conway area. so saturated, and so much big money being invested in the hotels, its tough to match amenities vs cost, and I see travelers trending back towards the hotel style accommodations. granted, for the right price, I'd buy anything and figure out what the best use for it is. use airdna.co for decent data on # of Short term rentals in any particular market. can also identify opportunities. the point of my response.... be careful in STR in any area and always have a plan B. you can change a lot of things about a property, but your cant change your basis!
