You're being encouraged to finance people's earnest money deposits.

Clearly you've done a lot of digging thus far...And I would encourage you to dig deeper.

. , the other thing, what I'd say is when people when I talk to investors, I always encourage them to really define what they're looking for.There's an old expression that kind of says, if you don't know what you're aiming for, you're going to hit it 100% of the time.

Thank you for the encouragements and advice!

When I asked about doing cost segregation for my SFR my accountant at 1800 actually sent me an article from Biggerpockets which was encouraging.

I've personally worked with a handful of "investor-friendly" lenders, primarily on DSCR loans in recent years, and each time I've run into significant delays, lack of transparency about the process, have been fed the requirements in a piecemeal fashion (every few days there's a new random request rather than having it all organized from the start), and have even run into lenders who were substantially misinformed about the real estate industry or the laws that govern it on both a local and federal level.I think there should be a better site to encourage accountability by tracking how long it actually takes each lender to close their loans on average, and what unexpected hurdles investors encounter when trying to work with them.I can't seem to find such a site.

Hey all,I was wondering if any of you have or encourage building a website when starting out with real estate investing?

I usually say something like, “we encourage future potential guests to read all other guest reviews of our property for an honest assessment of what to expect.”

I encourage you to look forward and stay hungry for property number 3!
