I think process/communication is what separate's the good from the great lenders.

Excuses are fun, but they don't change my process.

Hire an interior design person.

Although it isn't considered a residential property, they still have to go through a sheriff sale process in Pennsylvania, for example, which takes several months.

I am a big believer on self-managing with the right systems and processes until you can hire an internal PM.

I've been in this market for over 4 years and deals still make sense, but you will need to be more involved in leaning out processes and operations.

They can help you navigate the rental process, screen potential tenants, and handle any maintenance or repair issues that may arise.Overall, there are several avenues you can explore to find renters for your medium term rental property.

It's not large enough to out right buy most properties and then start the brrrr process, but I definitely could use it for down-payments.

**I understand the need for a fee for all the hard work they're doing - but prefer to have strict numbers and processes

Some will tell you "On Title, or no experience", thankfully, there are some lenders who WILL consider GC experience if we can validate with permits pulled on similar addresses/projects - this would be part of the underwriting process.
