@Billy Houston- thanks  1) DSCR might work very  well for you ...if you can  qualify for a standard  conventional 85% ltv  loan - this would provide better  loan terms   2) yes - DSCR is very different than a cash out refinance 3) consider  getting fully pre approved for a standard  conventional loan at a 85% ltv ..this is  crucial  to do if you are looking to buy in a competitive market - thanks and all the best

As you know already - marketing for seller-financed notes takes a great deal of time, patience, trial, and error.
