They claim to be able to increase your chances of getting approved for a loan or line of credit.

I think you're right to look at finding something related to RE so that whatever your side hustle is, gets you closer to your ultimate goal of increasing your proficiency in RE.One thing that I have seen as a good option for those of us with 9-5 jobs is to make cold calls for wholesalers or other Investors.

This year it will cash flow at 1.1% because of early PMI drop + rent increase to market.

Putting polish on a t**d will not likely increase it's value.

Buy with hard money at an increased rate, refi with a traditional in 6mo to a year.

If they can't qualify with three, they sure as hell can't handle it with just two.When three or more unrelated people rent together, it is an increased risk.

I would be careful raising rents that high that quick, $100 may not seem like a lot however at the current rent it is almost 20% more. the property might need 4 new tenants if they cant afford a 20% instant price increase.

That way if the appraisal comes in low you have negotiation room but if it comes in high they can't increase the price.

BTW, you most likely won't get more than a 5 to 7 year loan (5-7 year 'call') with a 20 year amortization in today's market, given that rates are changing (increasing).

If you want the property bad enough, increase your offer.
