This indicates a shift from a seller's paradise to a more balanced market.Median Sales Price Holds Steady: The median sold price for residential homes sits at $469,998, reflecting a modest 1.9% year-over-year increase.Fewer Bidding Wars: Though sellers are still receiving close to list price (95.6%), the intense bidding wars of the past seem to be fading.

Couple options that might be viable for you (I don't know all of your circumstances)- BRRRR into a DSCR by creating equity; partner closely with a lender before starting on this to cover seasoning and other requirements - also this will only work for an investment property, not a primary- bank statement loan/1099 loan may work if you can put at least 10% down and want a primary residence - will depend on how you're operating and a few other variables- seller financing; find a seller willing to carry a note for a few years- co-borrower; someone with decent income and credit who will be on the loan with you- DSCR purchase; be prepared to put down at least 75% or your rate/pricing will be horrible (70% is better); many lenders will have experience requirements; investment property only- find a private lender willing to fund the loan you need- get a salaried job relevant to your college coursework; your fico is strong and you have some cash, so househacking could be within reach via Fannie/Freddie multifamily purchase; get a solid workup from a competent lender before going this route as employment history will be touchy with this routeHard money can be used for an acquisition and rehab, but make sure your takeout financing plan is bulletproof before getting hard money.I'm originally from Baton Rouge.

From closing on the land to move in day is going to be 6 months minimum based on anything I've seen.  

Hello,My wife and I are closing on our first STR in two weeks at Lake Tenkiller in Oklahoma.

Currently have not closed any transactions but I have clients looking.

Has anyone closed a loan with them?

Get with a title company in your ares that closes these type of transactions. 

I have sellers of a t6-8 zoned property that would take 1 million right now I'm sure in Wynwood Norte. we can go 12 stories through max incentives and put 60 dwelling units on it. we entitle the land it becomes worth 3 million, then you have construction numbers, sale prices, etc. miami is crazy. the best way to make money from a professional in this industry for 13 years who lives in miami and looks at deals in columbus and miami is development and getting involved in early development opportunities of raw land in urban settings where there is very little risk and pushing high density.

this man is a honest man.he has been buying and saling houses for  very long time.and what he teach on real estate checks out.

There are a few reasons for this: 1) They are costly and the Exchange intermediary may require a whole host of inspections including environmental reports etc and 2) One has to come up with the cash to buy the new property without getting the equity out of the first property - not everyone can do that - add in having to get a loan while still being obligated to the loan on the “sale” property.
