I’m trying to get loan for my first rental investment and I was wondering does anybody have experience using a Mortgage broker that service the Cleveland, Columbus, Dayton, Springfield Ohio areas?

I wanted to find an investment strategy that would provide more cashflow than a traditional long term rental, but I wanted it to be lower maintenance than a short term rental.

If successful the process would end with a court order requiring the mobile home to be removed.The question would be easier to answer if the actual language was provided so it could be determined that the restriction runs with the land and bind subsequent owners.

A 1 hour commute is not a problem but you may need to provide a letter of explanation.

There you will be asked your criteria and then after answering a few questions you will be matched with 3-5 agents or loan officers in your area.

Hi Bob,If you have had a positive experience like it seems that you have, I'd suggest sticking with your current turnkey provider.8 years is a long time and only having 2 tenant turnovers in that time is fantastic.They have stood the test of time and not many turnkey providers do.Also, why fix it if it's not broken?

Any advice on if we should use it to pay off our loans against two of our retirement accounts (that we took out for the downpayment on the first STR) in order to lower the monthly bills or if we can/should cash out one or two of our retirement accounts (457 and/or 403b) and pay off the loans? 

First, never send a lender money unless it's to be paid for appraisal or admin charges and if you looking for a good lender I could refer you to our hedge fund which offers you a hard money loan with no experience and only must be a homeowner.

I have a blog post that dives into the powerful savings in lower mortgage payment and increased debt paydown when you buy with an assumable loan vs a new loan at today's rates!

Cameron,If you are looking for a Primary Home loan its easy you can use a DPA program.
