I’m not a super seasoned investor but I’ve listened to the podcasts a lot and one option is buy them out so you don’t have the hassle of legal things that take time and money. 

Seems you could hold back quite a bit more capital without significantly increasing your holding costs.Most banks require a 6-month seasoning period before they will refi based on a new appraisal.Repairs and CapEx are low.

We proceed with closing, have a summer rental season of $0, we are out $100k of income.  2.

I have found 4 acres. 2.5-3 is roughly open and the rest is woods.

Mid-size apartment buildings and multi-family are all mostly still wood framed and covered with stucco. 

Recently closed on a multifamily (5+ units) investment property and looking for a lender that has a shorter seasoning period. 

That tends to point to an operator that is not that seasoned or experienced.

We can help first-time investors or seasoned investors with a mix of hard money, LOC's, private money, asset-based/no score programs as well. 

Which still leaves enough in reserves for a contingency budget. 2-3 months later, sell it and do it again or wait for the seasoning period, refi and do it again. 

Also it is important to note that in February 2020 15% of sales had an ADOM of 5 days or less compared to 9% sales in February 2019.We have entered the peak of listing season.
