It can definitely be a painful process at times but, keep searching if you are unhappy with your last refi bank and eventually you’ll find one that you work well with 

I think they're looking on BiggerPockets to find someone to potentially solve their pain point THERE problem.

@Karan Rekhi this is all i do. i only rent by the room. anyone that tells you it’s not worth doing is wrong. be careful about town ordinances. the town i am in only allows 4 unrelated people per unit.as far as finding people, i do all of that although your incentive idea isn’t terrible. i have all multifamily and i basically position tenants together that will fit well. also, sometimes females will be uncomfortable living with males. for the most part, if you can get like minded people together you will be fine.yes, depending on your class of people, you will get some drama. do your homework on your tenants and vet them well and always talk to the previous landlord. happy to help you here. just let me know why other questions you have. you will have growing pains with this strategy but once you get the hang of it, it will be very valuable.

Low equity properties can be a pain.
